Job opening: Copywriter

SOVRN in Boise is looking to add a Copywriter to their team. From the job description on their website:

First and foremost, you should be able to write. Headlines, content, storylines, fun stuff—not technical stuff. Coming in a close second is that you need to be able to come up with ideas and concepts. We have a team that can bring just about any idea to life, but we want another great creative mind to add ideas, opinions, perspective and experience. You need to be confident enough to present any idea to the team and take constructive feedback without feeling it’s a personal attack.

Things you better be if you apply:
– Born to write irresistible prose
– Able to take feedback without taking your soccer ball home
– Flexible without being a pushover
– Self-driven, motivated & confident
– More effective as part of a team
– Nice

Things that don’t make the cut:
– Flakiness
– Negativity
– Arrogance

Full details and how to apply can be found on their site.

New hire at SOVRN

From our friends over at SOVRN:

Chris BeckerSOVRN continues to grow and expand its capabilities with the recent addition of Chris Becker as Art Director and Designer. Chris joins the team of in-house creative and strategic brand builders with responsibilities in identity development, brand management and digital user experience design.

Chris has always felt the world could be a more beautiful place. This drew him to the graphic design field at an early age and then motivated him to earn two different arts degrees – first from North Idaho College, and later Boise State University. Now, this creative problem solver is applying his clean, modern aesthetic to diverse assignments in marketing and audience engagement for SOVRN clients.

Becker’s strong background in mass communication and passion for public art drive him to create simple yet compelling brand identity concepts and educational materials. His highly conceptual yet functional approach to digital media including website user experience, result in intuitively elegant online materials.

Chris arrived at SOVRN with an already impressive decade-plus career as a director, editor and animator. UK born and educated, Chris has worked extensively for Viacom and the MTV Networks where his credits include launching a digital channel for MTV and directing over 20 major label music videos for broadcast.
