We started as copywriters. Now we represent them.

Copywriter Collective was founded in Amsterdam in 2002 by Jack Stafford – a copywriter who discovered he was better at finding and managing exceptional creative talent than sitting behind the keyboard himself.

What started as a small collective of British creatives working in the Netherlands has grown into a global talent agency representing some of the most awarded copywriters and creative directors in the industry.

We operate like a photography agency does for photographers, or a literary agency does for authors.

We know our people. We understand the brief. We make the match – and we stand behind it.

Over twenty years, we’ve placed talent with Apple, Nike, Google, Philips, BMW, Amazon, and Adobe, and with agencies including Wieden+Kennedy, 72andSunny, TBWA, BBDO, and Ogilvy. Our creatives have won Lions, Pencils, Andys, and Effies.

In a world drowning in content, we believe the value of original human creative thinking has never been higher. The brands that will win are the ones that sound unmistakably like themselves.
