Personal Finance Copywriter

3 weeks ago


Johannesburg, South Africa TOP Full time

If you have experience in writing long-form content and can demonstrate financial expertise, then we might have your next great job role.

**Some things to know about us**:
First, we're not like every other digital media company. We believe in the power of data. We embrace new tools and technology. We swoon over an elegant process or system. We love blueprints and playbooks. If it ain't broke, optimize it. As a result, we're growing faster than pretty much any other digital media startup.
Second, we work a little differently. Scholaroo is part of a network of websites that utilizes a unique blend of data, PR, and SEO to launch and scale websites at an unprecedented rate. We're redefining what the digital media game plan looks like to build a portfolio with unicorn potential.
Third, we're known for our flexible work environment. Not only are we fully remote, but we actually coordinate remote culture and team-building activities on a global basis. Need to work unusual hours or pick up your kids at a set time each day? No problem, we've got your back.
Does any of this get you super excited? Are you ready for potentially the best professional experience of your career?

Previous work experience in a financial copywriting role.
