About the Role

Backcountry needs a senior copywriter who can deliver compelling marketing copy across every major channel for Backcountry, Competitive Cyclist, Steep & Cheap, and our other brands—while leading the editorial team's adoption of AI to build smarter, faster workflows.

As Senior Marketing Copywriter, you will own messaging end to end, ensuring each brand's voice stays consistent while adapting your writing to different audiences, campaigns, and customer journeys. Success in the first year means delivering exceptional copy that moves performance metrics, raising the quality bar for the broader team, and establishing scalable AI-driven editorial processes that the team actually uses.

This is a lean team. You will own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end-to-end responsibility.

What You'll Do

• Write compelling, high-performing marketing copy across email, SMS, paid social, display, landing pages, site merchandising, and other customer touchpoints for Backcountry and Competitive Cyclist.
• Adapt messaging to each brand's distinct voice and audience—from Backcountry's outdoor enthusiasts to Competitive Cyclist's performance-driven riders—while tailoring copy for each marketing channel.
• Own brand voice, tone, and editorial standards across campaign marketing, auditing existing content for consistency, identifying gaps, and partnering with the Managing Edito
