KAYAK, part of Booking Holdings and the world's leading travel search engine, is seeking an experienced Conceptual Copywriter to join its in-house creative team in London. The role requires at least 3 days per week in the office.
You will develop creative concepts and write compelling copy across multiple channels including brand campaigns, performance marketing, social media, video, digital, out-of-home advertising, and emerging platforms. Your responsibilities include writing across diverse formats—campaigns, scripts, social content, CRM communications, landing pages, product messaging, and brand communications—while helping shape KAYAK's voice and tone across all touchpoints.
You'll partner closely with creatives, designers, marketers, and product teams to create cohesive, insight-led creative work. You'll shepherd ideas from brief through execution while maintaining high craft standards, contribute to presentations and messaging frameworks, and use testing and performance data to refine messaging and improve results.
The ideal candidate has 4-6+ years of creative experience with a strong portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking and execution across multiple formats. You should have advertising agency or brand-side creative experience, be comfortable writing across different tones and audiences, and balance creative ambition with commercial objectives. Experience in film production is advantageous. You're passionate about branding, storytelling, travel, and culture, and excited by emerging creative tools including AI.
KAYAK offers comprehensive benefits including 5 weeks paid vacation, private health and dental insurance, pension contributions, mental health support (therapy and Headspace), no-meeting Fridays, paid parental leave, development dollars, and travel discounts. The company emphasizes well-being with a company-wide week off annually and flexible remote work (up to 20 days per year).
