Zoo Media Inc., the creative division of the Dakdan family of companies, is seeking a talented and imaginative Copywriter to join our digital‑first storytelling team. This role is perfect for a passionate writer who wants to grow not only in copywriting and copy editing, but also in publishing across multiple platforms — including digital media, online magazines, eBooks, youth‑focused publications, and creator‑driven content.
As a Copywriter at Zoo Media, you will craft compelling narratives for marketing campaigns, social media, editorial features, branded materials, and digital storytelling initiatives. You’ll gain hands‑on experience in the modern publishing landscape, learning how to create, refine, and distribute content across both traditional and emerging formats. You’ll also explore the fast‑growing world of influencer and creator‑based media, developing strategies that engage audiences and amplify Zoo Media’s mission through authentic, youth‑centered storytelling.
Job Description
Work remotely to support the growth and creative impact of Zoo Media, Dakdan Entertainment, and the broader Dakdan family of companies. You’ll learn what it takes to shape and manage a brand voice, build meaningful narratives, and contribute to digital‑first content that resonates with diverse audiences. You’ll also gain exposure to the evolving world of creator culture, youth engagement, and modern media publishing.
