About UHE

Under Her Empire (UHE) is a community-driven creative agency at the intersection of ambition, artistry, and social impact. We create content, experiences, and strategies that elevate underrepresented voices, and we’re growing.

About the Opportunity

You're fluent in both creative instinct and performance data. You can spot a trend, shape a moment, and write a caption that lands and converts. You’ll help shape and sharpen UHE’s content across brand and client work, ensuring it performs as powerfully as it looks.

Responsibilities:

• Be the voice shaper. You’ll refine and elevate UHE and client messaging so it’s sharp, resonant, and aligned with brand tone.
• Keep content purposeful. You’ll ensure every post, caption, and campaign isn’t just beautiful - it’s strategic, measurable, and designed to connect.
• Move fast, stay intentional. You’ll create timely copy that taps into trending cultural moments while staying rooted in UHE’s values.
• Lead with insight. You’ll analyze performance data and turn it into clear, actionable recommendations for creative iteration.
• Spot opportunities early. You’ll identify emerging trends, platform shifts, and cultural conversations before they peak - and then position our content to ride the wave.
• Collaborate with heart. You’ll work closely with creative leads, designers, and strategists to make sure campaigns feel cohesive and powerful from concept to execution.

Ideal Qualifications:

• You’re a skilled writer and editor with a voice adaptable to multiple brands, able to go from poetic to punchy with ease.
• You live at the intersection of creativity and data, understanding both what looks good and what performs.
• You have a pulse on culture, social platforms, and algorithms, and know how to translate that into engagement.
• You can turn ideas around quickly without sacrificing quality, even when timelines shift.
• You thrive in collaboration and can offer constructive feedback while keeping energy grounded and solutions-oriented.
• Bonus points for a track record in brand development for consumer or media platforms
• Note: This role is open to US-based contractors only. UHE cannot sponsor visas for this contract opportunity.

How to Apply: Please upload your resume and complete the short application.
