Junior Copywriter

Hello. We’re Polaroid. An iconic brand, built by passionate people.

Polaroid was founded in 1937 by one of the 20th century’s most influential innovators, Edwin Land, whose philosophy was: “Don’t undertake a project unless it is manifestly important and nearly impossible.”

In 2008, Polaroid produced its last pack of instant film. But a group of passionate fans refused to let instant photography disappear. What started as The Impossible Project grew into a mission to preserve and reinvent analogue photography for a new generation. More than a decade later, that same startup acquired the Polaroid brand and continues to shape its future today.
At Polaroid, we create products and experiences that spark emotion, fuel creativity, and bring people closer together. At the intersection of art and technology, we believe in the power of analogue moments and genuine human connection in an increasingly digital world.

We’re looking for a junior copywriter (human) to join our in-house creative team in Amsterdam.

You don’t need to arrive as the finished product (we’d rather you didn’t). We’re looking for someone who can write clearly and think creatively, is culturally awake, and brings interests into the room that go well beyond advertising. 

You’ll help shape how we show up in the world: across campaigns, product launches, social, CRM, retail, editorial, and the evolving voice of the brand.

This is a junior role, so you’ll be learning as you go, but we’re looking for someone with taste, energy, and the rumblings of a strong creative point of view. An appreciation of the analog is a must.

• →

  Work with the creative team to develop ideas, campaigns, and copy across different channels

• →

  Write campaign lines, product copy, CRM, social, retail, and brand copy

• →

  Help turn creative concepts into executions across multiple touchpoints

• →

  Move between briefs big and small, from launch campaigns to quick-turnaround requests

• →

  Learn the Polaroid tone of voice and help evolve it with care

• →

  Bring ideas and references into the room

• 1-3 years of experience as a copywriter, ideally in an agency, brand, or creative environment

• A portfolio that shows both writing ability and conceptual thinking (mock stuff is fine)

• Someone who likes words, ideas, images, and culture

• A low-ego creative who is open to learning, but still has a point of view

• A clear writer with good attention to detail

• Someone who can take feedback without wanting to climb a tree and never come down

• A person who plays nicely with other creative humans

Our creative team is intentionally small. We work closely across concept, copy, photography, design, and production to make work that feels true to Polaroid’s culture and legacy.

Everyone contributes ideas. Everyone cares about craft. Everyone has to be comfortable switching between the big, romantic version of Polaroid, and the practical reality of getting the thing made.

If that sounds like the kind of tension you enjoy, we’d like to hear from you.
