the7stars is unlike any other communications agency. The distinction started the day we launched in 2005 when we named ourselves after a pub, but more importantly when we made a promise that we were going to do things differently.

And this commitment has stuck with us. It guides how we work, how we think and how we treat one another and can be expressed in a single word.

Freedom.

Our Freedom philosophy lives across our entire business from people, product and planning. It means we plan & buy media how we want, develop careers how we want, take holiday when we need it, invent tools when we need them, give people a platform to speak up, question and express themselves freely - but more importantly it has allowed us to create an amazing place to work.

We have a unique working environment and open structure which encourages personal development through client contact, team work, training, exposure to all media and internal teams – and a “sky’s the limit” approach to your growth within the agency.

In 2024 we have achieved our 12th year in a row as a Sunday Times Top 100 company to work for and in 2023 were awarded Campaign’s number one media agency to work for accolade for the second year running.

the7stars is 300 passionate media people that are able to focus purely on creating great work for our clients. UK focused, we also operate within an agile global network of like-minded friends, extending our client portfolio into Europe and the US.

If thinking freely and with integrity is your bag, then the7stars is an agency you should meet.

The Opportunity

The7stars is the UK’s biggest independent communications agency. We are looking for a middleweight creative copywriter to shine within our experienced creative department. If you share a passion for creativity in all its forms, if you love crafting your copy as much as you love rolling your sleeves up and getting stuck into a project, then you’re going to thrive in this award-winning environment. 

Who are you? 

You’re a midweight creative copywriter in an existing content, social or advertising agency. You’re hungry for a move because you need variety in your day to day. You have an exciting creative portfolio of vibrant thinking in the conceptual and social space and you would like us to see it. You love your creative craft as much as you love to devour popular culture and you thrive in a fast-paced environment when the briefs are rewarding and the opportunity to own a project arises. You are equally adept at creating the big global brand idea that feeds an entire media eco system, as you are taking it upon yourself to nail the content of a noisy social campaign. Of equal importance are your exceptional soft skills. You’ll be as happy holding the hand of a client to guide their brand direction, as you are persuading internal teams of the merit of your big idea. This is a big deal for us as a Sunday Times best place to work. We are looking for true team players, oozing positivity with an enthusiastic approach to colleagues and creativity alike.
