About the team

The Creative Team is a team that functions purely on data, creativity & caffeine (occasionally beer). We’re a motley crew that was put together to make the impossible possible; i.e., make fintech fun. We’re now on the hunt for a young, hungry writer to join us on this mission. (Don’t worry, you don’t need to be good at math.)

About the role

Fintech is a hot, booming industry. Understandably, it’s also getting crowded.

As Sr. UX Writer, you’ll be responsible for maintaining a consistent tone of voice on our app that delights our customers at every step of their journey. 

What You will do

• Work with the Creative Team, Design Team and Product Team to craft simple, delightful and effective in-app communication including - but not limited to - buttons, tooltips, empty states, etc. 
• Assume nothing, test everything. Proactively reach out to customers to get feedback about their product experience and make changes to your copy for ease of use.
• Set the tone of content in collaboration with the Creative (Marketing) Team.

What you will need 

Must-haves  

• 3 - 5 years of relevant writing experience.
• A portfolio of UX writing samples.
• The ability to convey a lot very simply. 
• A can-do attitude and the ability to use the independence slice offers to your advantage. 

Good to have

• The ability to write with localisation in mind.
• Prior start-up experience with a young consumer brand. 

Important: 

• Please ensure your portfolio links are embedded in your resume. Resumes without portfolio links will automatically be rejected.
