Who we are
Hallow is on a mission to help people pray. We’re the No. 1 prayer app in the world, with more than 1 billion prayers prayed across 150+ countries. We're building a product that is authentically Christian and Catholic, while at the same time a resource for anyone looking to grow deeper in a relationship with God. We believe that people are hungry for peace, and that there is no surer way to find it than by learning to sit in silence with Christ: “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” (Mt 11:28).
Our goal is to build something truly great. Something that combines the beauty of the Church's spirituality with world-class product and content execution. And we need a world-class team to make it happen.
We launched the app in December 2018 and have been blown away with the incredible growth & traction. Hallow has been downloaded more than 30 million times with over 250,000 5-star reviews. We're blessed to be backed by some of the best mission-driven investors in the world and are excited to build out the team to help a lot more folks grow closer to God.
We are a startup. We move quickly. We are small but we take big swings. Each person is responsible for making an impact. It is hard—but deeply meaningful—work. We'd be honored & humbled if you'd consider joining us.
TL;DR: We’re looking for a Marketing Copywriter to help bring Hallow’s message to life across paid ads, social, and TV—writing high-performing scripts and creative that invite people into prayer.
- Own Ad Creative Copy (Paid, Social, TV): You’ll write scripts and copy for ads across channels—from paid social and UGC to influencer partnerships and TV commercials. Your work will help millions of people discover Hallow and take their first step into prayer.
- Turn Performance into Creative: You’ll dig into ad performance—what’s working, what’s not—and turn those insights into better hooks, better scripts, and better storytelling. You know how to spot patterns and iterate quickly.
- Write for Real People (and Real Voices): You’ll create scripts for a wide range of voices—from everyday users and UGC creators to influencers and celebrity partners. You’ll adapt tone and messaging while staying true to Hallow’s voice.
- Collaborate Cross-Functionally: You’ll work closely with Design, Content, and Partnerships teams to bring campaigns to life—from initial concept to final execution.
- Test, Learn, Repeat: You’ll constantly test new hooks, formats, angles, and messaging. You’re excited by experimentation and motivated by seeing your ideas translate into real impact.
- Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Everyday we hear amazing stories and we get the pleasure of working on something that’s impacting lives. One of our favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.”
- Ownership: When a company is this small, every employee is a core team member with an outsized impact. You'll be the face of Hallow as you build creative that is seen by millions around the world and directly impacts growth.
- Growth: From day 1, you’ll be a part of the startup journey. We're growing quickly, and we’ll need your help to create a world-class team and get individuals praying in more countries around the world.

- Experience: You have strong experience writing high-performing marketing copy, especially for paid ads, UGC, influencer content, or TV. You know how to hook attention and drive action. You must have specific examples of scripts, videos, commercials, or ads that you've worked on the past.
- Performance Mindset: You don’t just write—you learn. You’re comfortable digging into performance data and using it to improve your work.
- Creative Range: You can write for different formats, audiences, and voices—from short-form social hooks to longer storytelling scripts.
