Maven is looking for an experienced Freelance, Senior Copywriter to join our Brand Creative team. This role will be primarily focused on B2B marketing initiatives (paid media, email nurture, website, enrollment marketing, etc.). Along with our Copywriter and Creative Lead, you’ll work closely with our cross-functional partners across Marketing, Product, Social, and Growth to ensure messaging is on-brand and impactful for each of our audiences, including enterprise clients, benefits leaders, healthcare professionals, and members. 

We commission stories that are revelatory and dynamic, the kind that teach readers something they didn’t already know—be it a dark force warping an issue or affecting a community, or an undercovered solution to some of our most intractable problems. For stories with a primarily local context, you’ll need to demonstrate their national relevance to our far-flung audience; meanwhile, international pitches should have a strong domestic connection. 

We’re interested in just about anything that will raise our readers’ eyebrows, but we focus especially on these areas: national politics, democracy protection and restoration, racial and economic justice, climate and the environment, corporate wrongdoing, and human rights.

We're looking for Freelance Writers to produce a range of reviews and features on art, culture, film, music and more.

Interested? Email your name, location and an example of unpublished work to pr@aestheticamagazine.com with subject: Freelance Application.
