We're looking for a Copywriter Intern at our Toronto office who lives and breathes ideas. You've got a brain full of headlines, a notes app of half-written ideas, and a love for language that borders on obsessive.
If that sounds like you, we should talk.
We are INNOCEAN. A creatively driven agency that's growing fast – and we're looking for a talented Copywriter Intern who's eager to jump in, learn from the best, and help us make work that gets noticed.
You'll be part of our creative team, working with our Art Director Intern, helping to bring campaigns to life across digital, social, and traditional platforms. This role is all about curiosity, craft, and collaboration. Perfect for someone who wants to turn great ideas into real-world work.
What you'll do:
- Collaborate with Art Directors, Copywriters, and Creative Directors on a wide range of campaigns.
- Contribute to the concepting and execution of digital ads, social content, experiential, and more.
- Craft clear, compelling copy that stays true to brand voice and strategy.
- Bring fresh, unexpected thinking to brainstorms and creative challenges.
- Support the creative team with research, idea generation, and presentation prep.
- Take feedback in stride and use it to make the work (and your writing) stronger.
What we're looking for:
- Students in their final year of study in advertising, marketing, creative, or related programs.
- A portfolio (student or personal projects welcome!) that shows off your ability to write, think, and surprise us.
- A passion for storytelling, brand building, and creative problem solving.
- Comfort writing in a variety of tones and formats, from punchy headlines to long-form copy.
- Strong attention to detail and a love for the craft of writing.
- A collaborative spirit, open mind, and eagerness to learn.
- Bonus points if you've dabbled in scriptwriting, social-first ideas, or know your way around a brand voice.
What you'll love about working at INNOCEAN Canada:
- People-first and inclusive of all – we're proud to be recognized by ‘Great Places to Work' - three years in a row and counting – overall, as well as for youth, inclusion, and as a Best Place to Work for Women.
- Flexible hybrid work set up, with an awesome space at King Street West for collaboration and team get-togethers.
- Coaching and mentorship in your day-to-day to fuel your growth.
