THE ROLE
Sachi Skin is a founder-led clinical skincare brand rooted in Ayurvedic heritage, where ancient wisdom meets modern cosmetic science.
We are looking for an exceptional writer, researcher and natural storyteller to join our content team.
At Sachi Skin, the founder's voice has naturally become the voice of the brand: intelligent, warm, curious, educational, direct and deeply informed by skincare science, formulation, culture and more than 20 years in beauty. A major part of this role is learning that voice.
You should be able to study existing founder writing, interviews, emails, captions and scripts, understand the nuances of how Farah communicates, and gradually become able to write in and accurately mimic the Founder/Sachi Skin voice across different channels.
This is not simply a role for someone who can write grammatically correct copy. We want someone with a journalistic mind who is curious, researches deeply and knows how to find an interesting angle.
That could mean finding a new scientific paper on skin ageing, investigating the story behind an Ayurvedic ingredient, spotting a conversation around pigmentation, or turning a formulation decision into a compelling story.
You then help translate those ideas into content people want to read, watch and share.
WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON
Founder & Brand Voice
Your most important responsibility will be learning and applying the Sachi Skin voice.
You will write and support copy across:
You will work closely with the Founder initially, learning through feedback until you can confidently produce first drafts that require minimal rewriting.
The goal is not to create your own writing style. It is to become exceptionally good at understanding how Sachi Skin speaks and why.
Editorial Research & Story Finding
Research will be an important part of the role.
You will explore topics including:
We want someone who notices interesting stories rather than always waiting to be given them.
Someone who can say:
“I found something interesting. I think there is a Sachi Skin story here.”
“We need to talk about this because it’s relevant and trending for our US/UK customers”
Campaign & Content Copy
Working from our Brand & Campaign Calendar, you will help turn campaign themes into:
You will work alongside the wider marketing, social and design team rather than being responsible for running every campaign yourself.
Social & Short-Form Writing
You should understand how people consume content on Instagram and TikTok.
We need someone who can take a complicated skincare subject and find the one sentence that makes someone stop scrolling.
You will help develop hooks, scripts, captions, educational carousels, founder POVs and product stories for our social content team.
You do not need to be the primary video creator or editor. Your strength should be the idea, story and words behind the content.
Long-Form & Editorial
You will also support longer-form writing including:
We want thoughtful writing with a point of view, not generic beauty content.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
You are:
EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE
We are particularly interested in candidates with a degree or strong background in:
Journalism, Mass Communications, Media & Communications, English or Creative Writing.
Beauty or skincare experience is valuable, but exceptional writing ability, intellectual curiosity and editorial judgement matter more.
Please include a portfolio with examples of your strongest writing, such as:
YOUR FIRST WEEKS
Your first week will be Reading & Immersion Week.
You will study Sachi Skin's founder writing, website, campaigns, captions, emails, interviews, product materials and existing editorial.
You will begin documenting:
You will then immerse yourself in our core products, understanding why each exists, what it does, its formulation story, evidence and role within a customer's routine.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
Within your first three months:
CAREER PATH
