We're looking for a Copywriter to join our Brand team for three days a week.

You'll take ownership of much of our campaign copywriting, reviewing, refining and sharpening copy so it's clear, persuasive and unmistakably Funding Circle. You'll work across brand and product campaigns targeting small businesses, on channels including email, web, digital, print, direct, audio, and organic social.

You'll need to be a self-starter who's comfortable working with a range of stakeholders, giving and receiving feedback, and turning things around quickly. You'll pick up our tone of voice as if it's your own and know instinctively when copy reads right and when it needs another pass.

• Producing highly converting product copy and content for the website and cross-channel campaigns, working closely with the brand and design teams

• Editing and refining campaign copy from across the team to ensure it's on-brand, consistent and conversion-focused

• Copywriting for our Premiership Rugby partnership, including campaign headlines and digital ads

• Helping teams across the business to deliver on-brand communications

• Support the brand team on campaigns, events and other projects to grow the brand

• Proactively spotting and flagging risks or issues, such as compliance-sensitive wording in a regulated industry

03What we’re looking for 🌱

• 3+ years experience in a copy focused role

• Experience writing marketing copy for email marketing, direct mail, social and blogs, and experience writing for website conversion a bonus

• Excellent writing skills shown in a portfolio of work

• Ability to follow brand guidelines and deliver tone of voice across all comms

• Experience of working with multiple stakeholders and incorporating feedback

• Previous experience in financial services or another regulated sector is preferred

• Experience writing for businesses (B2B marketing) or SMEs would be a bonus

We’re building a place where everyone truly feels they belong. Even if your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you.

Why join us? 💜

We back you to build an incredible career and by joining us, you'll be part of one of The Sunday Times Best Companies to Work For 2026! As a flexible-first employer, we use a "best of both" approach. We’ll see you in our London office to collaborate, with barista coffee and subsidised Just Eat lunches on us!
