- Manage multiple writing assignments simultaneously while meeting deadlines and maintaining strong attention to detail
Minimum Requirements:
- 5 years of professional copywriting experience
- Financial services industry experience
- Experience writing within a regulated environment
- Experience collaborating with legal and/or compliance teams
- Strong writing, rewriting, editing, and proofreading skills
- Experience developing clear, direct, customer-facing communications
- Ability to take an established brief and independently produce a polished deliverable
- Strong attention to detail, particularly with financial and compliance-related content
- Strong research skills and ability to quickly learn unfamiliar products and terminology
- Strategic mindset with an understanding of audience, purpose, desired outcomes, and communications best practices
- Strong judgment and ability to critically review one's own work
- Self-directed with strong initiative, organization, and follow-through
- Strong communication and stakeholder collaboration skills
- Comfortable receiving and incorporating feedback through multiple rounds of revision
- Experience using AI-assisted writing tools for drafting, rewriting, summarization, brainstorming, or research
- Ability to provide AI tools with appropriate context, audience, objectives, tone, and constraints
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience in asset management, investment management, wealth management, retirement, banking, insurance, or related financial services
- Experience working within content design frameworks or design systems
- Portfolio demonstrating clear, direct communications within financial services, technology, healthcare, or another complex/regulated industry
- Experience translating complex financial products or concepts into clear, audience-appropriate communications
