We are seeking a Senior Copy Writer to be responsible for the planning and execution of marketing activities supporting the objectives developed in strategic marketing plans on a global/regional, segment or product basis.

The focus will be on ensuring that all written content aligns with the brand TOV and meets the highest standards.

What you will do:

  • Develop written marketing content across segment campaigns – including advertising, reports, thought leadership, digital, blog, social, sales enablement and video scripts – to successfully promote and position the company, brand, and products.
  • Develop strong partnerships with different Marketing teams to turn complex data, propositions, and products into compelling stories.
  • Research and quickly understand propositions, products, campaigns in the financial markets space.
  • Drive adoption and accuracy of application of the brand tone of voice and customer-driven narrative, in line with the brand platform.
  • Analyse, interpret and challenge creative briefs.
  • Manage regular edit/review and feedback sessions for agency/freelancer written content.
  • Develop timely and relevant thought leadership, such as white papers, long-form features, client communications, internal and external messaging, that contribute to the successful positioning of the organisation.
  • Leverage the perspectives of key internal and external partners to develop and sharpen the investment perspective in the content created across the business.

Qualifications

  • Experienced writer across the marketing mix: advertising, reports, thought leadership, digital, blog, social, sales enablement and video scripts for B2B audiences across complex subject matter.
  • A good understanding of design, digital media, SEO, and previous experience of working closely with sales and marketing teams.
  • Editorial mindset that seeks to understand what content financial audiences consume and how they like to receive and digest it.
  • Capacity to translate brand and content strategies – in relation to customer propositions and challenges – into tangible creative concepts.
  • Firm grasp of what constitutes valuable content and the ability to make that known and understood by those around you.
  • Ability to swiftly interpret feedback and execute accordingly.
  • Experienced editor of content with the ability to conduct constructive detailed content reviews and deliver constructive feedback.
  • Creativity, intuition, capacity to identify emerging trends and build relevant content stories based on them.
