Job Description

Microsoft Consumer Marketing is seeking a highly conceptual, craft-driven Microsoft Consumer Marketing – Creative Director (Copy) with a strong copywriting and storytelling background to shape the next generation of consumer marketing and brand communications across Microsoft’s consumer portfolio including Copilot, Surface, Windows, Microsoft 365, and emerging AI experiences. This role calls for a world-class narrative thinker—someone who can transform complex technology into clear, emotionally resonant stories that move people.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals.
