Copy Editor - Mark and Graham

Mark & Graham Copy Editor

The Mark & Graham Copy Editor will develop and refine compelling, on-brand copy across customer-facing channels, including e-commerce, email, seasonal campaigns, digital advertising, social media, and catalog.

In this role, you'll help bring products to life through accurate, customer-focused copy while upholding our brand voice and editorial standards. You'll partner closely with Merchandising, Product Development, Site Merchandising, and Marketing to support key business priorities and create a clear, consistent experience for our customers.

You'll work with merchants and product development teams to gather the information needed to tell each product's story, from materials and construction to personalization details and gifting relevance. This includes reviewing product information, conducting research, and meeting in person to see and feel samples. You'll identify what makes each product special, clarify missing or inconsistent details, and translate those insights into useful inputs for product copy.

You'll use our AI tools to refine AI-generated product descriptions. Drawing on the information gathered from merchants, you'll edit each draft for accuracy, brand voice, and the product details and selling points that matter to customers. You'll also partner with Site Merchandising to ensure product copy supports discovery, communicates key product stories clearly, and helps customers find the right gift.

Email will also be a key focus of this role. You'll write subject lines, preheaders, and email copy that support our steady daily cadence, while using email performance data to inform stronger concepts, sharper messaging, and more engaging customer storytelling.

This is a full-time position reporting to the Content Manager, with a hybrid work schedule: Monday through Thursday in our San Francisco office, and Friday working from home.
