Freelance Copywriter

Paintgun is a dynamic, creative agency focused on building high-performing paid social ads that drive measurable growth. We work at the intersection of creative strategy, performance marketing, and production, helping brands create ads that actually convert.
We’re looking for a Copywriter with strong hands-on experience in social-first creative, especially UGC-style content and organic social storytelling. This role is ideal for someone who understands how content performs on platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, Meta, and YouTube Shorts, and knows how to write hooks, scripts, and concepts that feel native to the feed.
This is not a traditional brand copywriting role. We are specifically looking for candidates with real experience creating or scripting UGC and organic social content.
