Junior Copywriter
Harvard is an award-winning agency for tech brands big and small. Whether you’re selling sound systems or servers it’s real people who are ultimately making buying decisions. Understanding what they read, see, believe and do is essential. This is why we put audience insights at the core of everything we do. We call this ‘making technology personal’.

Winning or shortlisted for some 58+ awards in the last 24 months, we have grown to a 70+ strong UK business with an international footprint, including the recently acquired Method, a US technology PR agency with offices in San Francisco and Salt Lake City. Competitive on salary and benefits, we offer a plethora of benefits including a profit-related bonus, access to private healthcare, a pension that we’ll match up to 5% of salary, a season ticket loan, à la carte breakfast on a Friday and free fruit (though you have to move quickly to secure a banana).
