Lippincott’s voice team plays a pivotal role in expressing who a brand is, and how they connect with the world. Our team of poets, publishers, copywriters, food critics and designers work collaboratively and creatively to define the unique character and voice for some of America’s most iconic brands.

As a Creative Writer, Brand Voice, you’ll blend your creative and strategic thinking while working with our design and strategy teams to identify opportunities to connect with customers across their journey. You will workshop and build out creative brand voice concepts and articulate the rationale behind these concepts to our clients.
