About Above Digital

Above Digital is a performance-driven digital agency specialising in lead generation and e-commerce revenue growth. With over 20 years of experience, we manage millions in ad spend across hundreds of campaigns for a diverse range of clients. We thrive on creating impactful campaigns that combine creativity with data-driven strategies.

About the Role

We’re looking for a creative copywriter who is also data-curious — someone who loves writing persuasive, conversion-focused copy but also wants to understand the why behind performance.

This is not a traditional copy-only role. You’ll start by writing ads, emails, and landing page copy, but you’ll also get training in paid ads (Meta, Google, LinkedIn), analytics tools (Google Analytics, Tag Manager), and performance tracking. Over time, you’ll grow into a hybrid marketer — combining the art of words with the science of ads and analytics.

If you’ve already worked in an agency and want to level up your skills beyond writing into digital performance, this is the perfect next step.

This position is based in our Downtown Dubai office and is an immediate-hire role.

Responsibilities

• Ad Copywriting: Write persuasive, high-performing copy for ads across Meta, Google, and LinkedIn.
• Email & Landing Pages: Craft email sequences and landing page copy designed to convert.
• Creative Feedback: Review ad designs and messaging, providing input on what resonates best.
• Performance Curiosity: Learn how to analyse results (CTR, conversions, ROAS) and connect copy to outcomes.
• Training in Paid Ads: Receive structured training in campaign setup, management, and optimisation.
• Analytics Exposure: Learn Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for event setup and conversion tracking.
• Collaboration: Work closely with design and strategy teams to align creative with performance goals.
• Growth Path: Gradually transition from pure copywriting into digital marketing and account management.

Requirements

• 1–2 years of professional experience in copywriting (ads, landing pages, email, or social media).
• Agency experience strongly preferred.
• Strong interest in data and analytics — you’re data-curious and want to understand why campaigns succeed.
• Solid grasp of persuasive writing and storytelling for conversions.
• Detail-oriented and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.

What We Offer

• A collaborative, growth-driven environment in a creative industry.
• Hands-on training in paid ads, analytics, and tracking tools (Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager).
• Mentorship with our business coach, providing personal and professional development beyond technical training.
• A clear growth path: Copywriting + Ads Support → Ads + Analytics → Account Manager (client ownership) or Digital Marketing Manager (strategy + performance).
• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• Opportunities to work on diverse campaigns across industries, with a strong focus on lead generation.
