Job Description

Flexibility, tenacity and a collaborative attitude are essential for this new role. You will have some experience working in an environment which is fast-paced and deadline driven.

  • Create copywriting examples and briefs for clients
  • Own the CMS copywriting process
  • Work with our core copywriting team to ensure tone of voice is kept consistent across all languages
  • Maintain quality of content on product pages

Who You Are

  • Native level Italian speaker & fluent in English
  • Expert knowledge of luxury fashion brands and products
  • You have a good writing style that is accurate, engaging and adaptable, with an impeccable use of grammar
  • You have an understanding of garment and accessory construction
  • You have the ability to work independently
  • You have the ability to work quickly and to agreed daily targets and deadlines
  • You are comfortable with digital work on an in-house CMS

The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility

First we assess the flexibility options FARFETCH provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure FARFETCH is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.

We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.
