New York, New York, United States Animalz Full time $60,000 - $120,000 per year

What You'll Do

You'll write long-form content (typically 1,500+ words) based on detailed briefs and strategic direction from our team. The work spans multiple formats:

  • Strategic blog posts that position our clients as credible voices in their industries
  • Thought leadership pieces that synthesize complex topics into accessible arguments
  • Social media content and email campaigns
  • Deep-dive analysis supported by research, data, and expert perspectives
  • Content revisions based on editorial feedback to meet our quality standards

Each piece requires you to develop clear arguments, back them with evidence, and deliver content that sounds authoritative—even when you're writing about a topic for the first time.

Must-Haves

  • Critical thinking. You know how to build an argument. You can identify the main point, organize supporting evidence, and present ideas in a sequence that makes sense to readers. You recognize when a brief's suggested structure works and when it needs adjustment for better flow.
  • Strong research skills. You dig beyond surface-level sources to find credible information. You can synthesize technical topics into clear explanations without oversimplifying. When you write about a subject, readers believe you understand it because your research gives you that understanding.
  • Strategic judgment. You know when to follow a brief exactly and when to make changes that serve the content better. You understand the difference between a structural improvement and an unnecessary detour. You make editorial decisions that align with the piece's goals.
  • Attention to detail. Spelling, consistency, and formatting matter to you. You catch errors before submitting. You maintain style consistency throughout a piece. You notice when a claim needs a citation or when a transition feels abrupt.
  • Clear communication. You tell us when you're available and when you're not. You ask clarifying questions when a brief is ambiguous. You communicate proactively about deadlines and flag potential issues early rather than at the last minute.
  • Coachability. You take feedback as information that helps you improve, not criticism to defend against. You apply editorial notes to future pieces. You get better with each assignment.

Bonus Points

  • B2B SaaS audience experience. You've written for marketing leaders, sales teams, or product managers. You understand how content fits into broader business goals and can write to those audiences without sounding like you're trying too hard.
  • Journalism or long-form background. You've written narrative pieces, reported stories, or produced explanatory content that requires interviewing sources and synthesizing multiple perspectives.
  • Technical topic familiarity. You can write about AI, data infrastructure, SaaS operations, or other technical subjects without getting lost in jargon or retreating to vague generalizations.

Why Work With Animalz

Experienced editorial support. Our editors make your writing stronger. You'll get detailed feedback on structure, argument, and clarity—not just surface-level copyedits.

Recognized brands. You'll write for companies that people in B2B SaaS know and respect. Your byline appears on content that gets read.

Clear direction. Every brief includes strategic context: what the piece should accomplish, who it's for, and how it fits into the client's broader content program. You won't have to guess what success looks like.

Fair pay and consistent work. We paid out over a million dollars to freelancers last year. Writers who deliver quality work see ongoing assignments across multiple clients.

Our Standards

Animalz has built a reputation for high-quality, high-impact content. That reputation is why clients hire us and why they trust us to represent their brands. We're selective about who we work with because every piece we publish reflects on both the client and our agency.

Good work leads to more work. Writers who consistently meet our standards get assigned to additional clients. Writers who deliver exceptional work become go-to resources for our most demanding projects.

If you care about producing well-structured, well-argued content and can demonstrate the abilities listed above, we'd like to hear from you.

How to Apply

Send an email to with:

  1. Two writing samples. Your strongest, most relevant work that demonstrates your ability to produce the content described above. Show us pieces where you developed a clear argument, synthesized complex information, or wrote authoritatively about a subject.
  2. A brief note (2-4 sentences). Explain why you're interested in working with Animalz and how your background aligns with the type of work we do.

If your application is successful, you'll hear back from us within two weeks on next steps.
