Job Description
Inkwell is a Bristol-based marketing agency that specialises in creating educational content for startups and small businesses. We help our partners reach and support business owners by creating best-in-class content.
Our clients range from corporates like PwC and Sage to government bodies like Innovate UK. We also work with business communities and leading universities like Cambridge.
Services include writing articles, copywriting, email marketing and video. We also run a nationwide startup competition called The Pitch, which helps thousands of entrepreneurs from across the UK every year.
We’re looking for a brilliant content writer to join our team of talented and passionate B2B content creators and experts. If you’re an experienced writer looking for a new challenge in an ambitious yet friendly agency, we’d love to hear from you.

Salary will be dependent on experience.
This is a full-time role based in Bristol city centre. We have flexible hours and a generous WFH policy once onboarding is completed.
