Copywriting Expert (Arabic Language)

1. Mission

At Trafilea, copywriting is not just about words—it’s about moving people to action through strategy-driven storytelling. We are looking for a Copywriting Expert — a rare hybrid who combines the creativity of a high-performing copywriter with the business insight and critical thinking of a creative strategist. In this role, you’ll craft persuasive, data-informed, and conversion-focused messaging for Arabic-speaking markets—especially in the Gulf region. Your work will be focused on Kenz, a Trafilea-owned brand dedicated to selling high-quality intimatewear tailored for women in the Gulf, with a particular emphasis on Saudi Arabia. You will collaborate daily with Acquisition, Creative, and Research teams, shaping campaigns from ideation to execution and iteration. You’ll be responsible not only for writing, but also for building briefs, interpreting performance data, and adapting your messaging to resonate deeply with local cultural and linguistic nuances. Your ability to blend storytelling and strategy will be essential to Kenz’s growth—and, more broadly, to Trafilea’s expansion in the MENA region.
