• Collaborate smoothly with design and creative teams, with knowledge of tools such as Figma and Adobe as a plus.

Why PHMG

We work with almost 40,000 clients worldwide, including Coca-Cola and Samsung, plus thousands of SMEs who are just as serious about growth. Try finding somewhere else with that mix. It means you will write at real scale, learn fast, and sharpen your craft.

We’re known for craft and creativity, but we’re building something even bigger. After 27 years reaching the pinnacle of audio branding, we’re now expanding into new products and services. This year is a major acceleration point, with big milestones and announcements ahead, making it a rare moment to join and help shape what comes next.

This is not "just copy".You will be the sharp edge of how the business sounds, sells, and shows up. You will turn data-led, optimised storytelling into work that actually lands, with results you can point to and say, "Yep. That was me."

You will also be joining an in-house team shaped by people who have worked at some of the most prestigious agencies. You get the high standards and sharp feedback, with the upside of being in-house: you can build consistency, develop a voice over time, and see the long-term impact of what you make, rather than waving goodbye the moment the campaign ends.

What you can expect

You will get a strong benefits package, a smart pension scheme and life insurance, plus wellbeing support likeHelp@Handand a freePureGymmembership. You will also get a holiday allowance that goes up by one day for each year of service. You will work from a modern office with creative spaces, breakout areas and a bar, and you will join a culture that actually showsup for its people, from the seasonal gala to socials and teams like football and netball. Most importantly, you will be trusted to bring ideas, challenge the brief, and push the work from good to genuinely great, building a portfolio you are proud of whileyourwriting gets tested at real scale.
