YOUR ROLE
You’ll write snappy, goal-driven copy for our largest brand, FinanceBuzz, that will be seen by over 44 million readers daily across various platforms. As part of our mission to democratize financial independence, you’ll play an integral role by educating our audience and helping them make smart financial decisions.
To succeed in this role, you need to be a multitasker who can juggle multiple projects without getting overwhelmed. You know how to prioritize and seamlessly switch gears between paid social campaigns, blog posts, and email copy. You’re also not afraid to speak up and ask questions when you need help.
When it comes to wordsmithing, you’re a confident writer who produces clean copy and turns around edits quickly. You use learnings and feedback to craft messages that deliver the desired business results (revenue, leads, or clicks.) You enjoy diving into the data to inform your creative choices.
You’ll work across a range of personal finance topics, combining an understanding of audience intent with product knowledge to create copy that both informs and performs. Bonus points if you can make insurance and debt relief sound electrifying.
In short, your goal is to write clear, concise, goal-oriented copy in the FinanceBuzz style and tone across all our marketing platforms, including:
- Paid and organic social
- Paid search
- Push notifications
- SMS
- Video
