Make it Good

Location: Cape Town, South Africa
Work model: Hybrid (1 day from home, plus general flexibility)
Salary: R50 000 - R75 000 CTC (depending on experience)

Why you'd want to work here

  • 22 days leave + 1 week after peak season
  • Performance-based bonus and competitive salary
  • Opportunity to go on international tours
  • Exposure to globally recognised luxury brands
  • Fast-paced, high-performing, collaborative culture
  • Resourceful, solutions-driven team with a strong "find a way" attitude
  • Diverse and inclusive environment

About our client
Our client is a luxury adventure travel company operating some of the world's most exclusive expeditions from Cape Town. They deliver world-class hospitality and transformative experiences to a global clientele. Everything they produce — from a social caption to a printed magazine — carries a specific voice, aesthetic, and emotional register. They need a Content & Brand Lead to protect and develop that standard: someone with a sharp editorial eye and the copywriting chops to elevate every piece of communication that goes out the door.

What the job involves

  • Writing and editing copy for core brand assets (website pages, campaigns, printed materials, experience descriptions, itineraries)
  • Elevating copy produced by the marketing team before it goes live
  • Writing blog posts, experience narratives, and editorial content as required
  • Adapting brand voice across formats (long-form, headlines, captions) without losing consistency
  • Reviewing all outgoing creative (copy, imagery, layout) for brand consistency and quality standards
  • Providing structured feedback on creative work, tied to brand rationale
  • Applying and maintaining brand guidelines across all channels
  • Collaborating on social content strategy, captions, visual selection, and calendar management
  • Supporting campaign delivery and translating briefs into creative frameworks
  • Maintaining the brand asset library and briefing external partners (designers, photographers, videographers) to brand standards

What you need to be considered

  • 3–5 years' experience in a brand, creative, editorial, or copywriting role
  • Strong written English — confident across multiple formats with a clear editorial instinct
  • Demonstrable copywriting and editing skills
  • A visual aesthetic — you have an eye, and you can brief against it
  • Experience applying and maintaining brand guidelines
  • Comfortable reviewing and giving constructive feedback on others' work
  • Ability to manage multiple briefs and deadlines without losing quality
  • Examples of your editorial and copywriting work must be included with your application — no examples, no response

Bonus points if you

  • Have a background in luxury, travel, hospitality, or premium lifestyle brands
  • Are familiar with and experienced in using AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.)
  • Have experience in a content lead, brand coordinator, or junior creative director role
  • Have a photography or videography sensibility
