Marketing & Communications
Paris, France
Posted on Saturday, February 10, 2024
We’re the world's leading carsharing platform, with millions of users around the world, sharing thousands of cars in over 950 cities across 8 countries.
Our mission is simple: Make our cities better places to live through carsharing.
Carsharing empowers people to move in a smarter and more sustainable way: studies show that one shared car replaces between 4 and 10 privately owned cars, which frees up space in our cities while giving communities 24/7 access to cars when they need them.
With our connected car technology, users can quickly and easily book and unlock a wide variety of vehicles directly from our app, without ever having to meet anyone in person, carry an access card, wait in line, or coordinate picking up keys.
To reach our vision of a world where all cars are shared, we need a strong team to help us disrupt car ownership. We look for people who are curious, positive, and engaged; who can adapt and learn quickly; who have the skills and smarts to reach their goals autonomously, while having the generosity and mindset to work collaboratively. No matter your role, background, or level of experience, we believe that every member of the team can have an impact.
We’re extremely proud to be certified a “Great Place to Work” since 2022!

The opportunity:

  • As we strengthen our brand, awareness and consideration efforts, we want to make Getaround more vocal across our different markets. We are looking for a versatile and creative content writer (FR & ENG) who will help us craft powerful and differentiating pieces of content to promote Getaround in the EU region, educate on carsharing, and engage with our communities of car owners and drivers.
  • You’ll be working within the global brand & content team in the Paris office and in contact with various internal stakeholders (CRM, Social, PR, Product, Operations, Public affairs, Customer Service ...).
  • You'll be part of the Global Marketing team and report directly to Thomas, our Global Head of Brand and Content.

What you'll do:

  • As a Content Writer, you’ll tell compelling stories about our brand, service, and company that increase awareness and consideration of Getaround, connect with our audience, and build brand loyalty and trust.

  • Contribute to building our editorial strategy & calendar in proposing ideas for themes, subjects and examples of content that will help us build a strong and appealing brand.
  • Ensure the follow-up of these communication supports, from their design to their delivery, in connection with our designers and the rest of the marketing team.
  • Creative copywriting
  • Craft catchy copy for brand marketing and awareness campaigns that explain our service in a compelling way, adapting the message to fit the medium - from homepage, to digital ads, OOH billboards, radio and videos.
  • Work on the conception of impactful advertising activations (especially on social networks) and their deployment from storytelling to production, hand in hand with the design team or external resources.
  • Imagine and develop new types of video content or animated assets for our social media in coordination with our social media manager and brand designers. Source profiles, stories and data, write impactful scripts, run interviews and help on the conception and editing of the assets.

  • Be the editorial referent for all incoming requests (e.g. text for a tradeshow, proofreading of app notifications, advice on customer service communication...), and the guardian of our editorial guidelines and tone of voice across departments (including Customer support, Operations, Corporate communications).
  • Contribute to defining our tone of voice and make it evolve over the course of our development.

What you'll bring:
