FREELANCE DIGITAL AD AND SOCIAL MEDIA COPYWRITER | WGBC
Freelance Digital Ad and Social Media Copywriter — Wine Growers British Columbia Contract | Remote | Canada (BC, AB, ON, WA focus)
About Wine Growers BC Wine Growers BC is the voice of British Columbia’s wine industry — representing the growers, the land, and the story of one of the world’s most exciting emerging wine regions. We run campaigns that educate, inspire, and move people to discover and choose BC VQA wine.
The Role We’re looking for one or two sharp, social-savvy copywriters to join our team on a contract basis. We are not looking for blog writing or long-form content, this position is focused on the fast-twitch, high-impact stuff: campaign copy for Instagram, Facebook, and digital ads that stop a scroll, earn a save, and drives action.
You’ll work closely with our small but mighty marketing team to bring campaign concepts to life across assets, adapting tone and message for distinct audiences across BC, Alberta, Ontario, and Washington.
What You’ll Be Writing
- Campaign copy for paid and organic social (Instagram, Facebook, potentially TikTok)
- Short-form digital ad copy
- Captions, CTAs, and headline variations for A/B testing
- Audience-specific copy adaptations (same campaign, different regional voice)
You’re the Right Fit If You:
- Have a portfolio of social and digital campaign copy — ideally for food, beverage, lifestyle, or travel
- Understand that “shorter, sharper, more human” is almost always the answer
- Can write with warmth and personality without sounding like every other wine brand
- Know the difference between how you write for a millennial wine-curious Ontarian vs. a longtime BC wine loyalist
- Are comfortable taking a creative brief and running with it, then taking feedback without it becoming a six-round email chain
- Can turn things around quickly when campaign windows are tight
- Have familiarity with BC wine, BC VQA, and the broader Canadian wine category
Bonus Points:
- Experience writing for cross-border audiences (Canada + Pacific Northwest USA)
- Bilingual (French/English) — not required but valued for any Quebec expansion
How We Work Together: This is a contract role — project-based to start, with the potential for an ongoing relationship as campaigns roll out through the year. We’ll share creative briefs, brand guidelines, and audience context upfront so you’re set up to do your best work.
To Apply Send us three things:
1. A brief note on why social copy is your thing (not your whole career — just this)
2. Two or three samples of social/digital campaign copy you’re proud of
3. Your rates
Send to HR@winebc.com with the subject line: WGBC Copywriter

- Bring a positive attitude—even during a 12-hour harvest shift
- Aren’t afraid to get a little dirty in pursuit of something extraordinary
Experience & Qualifications
While previous cellar experience or education in Oenology, Viticulture, Food Science, or a related field is an asset, enthusiasm, work ethic, and a willingness to learn are just as important.
You’ll also need to:

Stoneboat Vineyards – Tasting Room Ambassador
We’re looking to expand our Tasting Room Ambassador staff!
Are you passionate about hospitality, wine and creating unforgettable experiences? We’re seeking energetic and friendly individuals to join our tasting room staff.
The story of Stoneboat begins many decades ago, in 1979, when the original founders, Lanny and Julie Martinuk, left their careers in Vancouver, packed their dog, their savings, and some furniture into an old Ford truck, and drove to the Okanagan where Julie had grown up. In 1998, Lanny purchased the Orchard Grove vineyard on a handshake, where the winery is now located. This site would be planted primarily in Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Pinotage the backbone of our wines today. In 2021 Lanny and Julie decided to retire and sold Stoneboat to us, a group of enthusiastic investors passionate about wine. Today, we still honor all of Lanny’s hard work, passion, practices, and values at Stoneboat. Without question, our wines are what they are now because of the grapes they’re made from and the land those grapes are grown upon. All of which Lanny and his family built.
