Company mission
To move the world through our images, videos, and illustrations which seek to inform, drive debate, entertain, inspire, and challenge historic biases.
Role
Who you are
- A native English speaker who cares about words and how they’re used. You can look at a piece of writing and recommend improvements using general readability principles or a house style guide
- Someone who values work that looks as good as it sounds. You recognise when it’s worth revising copy or letting it go completely to create something that’s stronger overall
- Someone who can combine expansive thinking with attention to detail. You naturally push for the bigger idea that gets to the core of the message, but you also edit and proofread with care
- Someone who’s happy working remotely. While your immediate colleagues are based in the UK, many others are based around the world. You’ll need to be comfortable using Zoom to build relationships and move projects forward
- Someone’s who curious—about our imagery, our business, and whether there’s a different way of doing things
- An aptitude for language and an interest in all it can do. You might have a degree; you might not. You might have professional experience as a copywriter; you might not. We know good copywriters don’t all tread the same path
- An eagle eye. You notice double spaces or inconsistent capitalisation even when you’re not seeking them out
- A desire to learn. You want to develop as a copywriter and to build the knowledge you’ll need to write about Getty Images effectively. We’ve got plenty of ways to help you do that
- An openness to embracing cultural differences. Our teams and our customers represent many different cultures and that will shape the work you do here
What the job involves
- You’ll be part of a small, friendly group of UK-based creatives—including one other copywriter—working with marketers based in Europe and the Americas
- Together, we help sales teams and other colleagues across the world do the best job of communicating the value of Getty Images to our customers
- From our creative insights to our photographic archive, there’s much more to Getty Images than many people realise—and it will be your job to help change that
- It’s a chance to join a global brand that’s at the heart of culture in all its forms, and to see your words paired with some of the very best images in the world
- Writing, editing, and proofing a range of sales and marketing materials, with a focus on pitch decks, case studies, customer emails, and event materials
- Implementing our style principles and contributing your own suggestions for evolving how we use language at Getty Images
- Bringing your energy and ideas to conversations with Regional Marketing colleagues, helping tackle briefs and refine our processes so we can all do our best work
Application process
- Apply with a CV and cover letter
- Our recruitment team will go through your application and, if they think you could be a good fit, they’ll set up a call to tell you more about the role and answer any early questions you have
- The next step will be speaking to our existing copywriter to talk about the type of work you’ll be doing and how we see you fitting into the team. This is also a good time to ask any questions about copy or team culture
- The final stage will be a creative task and an in-person meeting with some of the team
Salary benchmarks

Already an extremely established presence, Getty Images is set to remain a market leader as it furthers the reach of its subscription-based model across the globe. It continues to bolster its archives, for example with the acquisition of Motorsport Images, and is also set to play a key role in the development of the AI imagery sector.
