This role is perfect for a motivated, detail-oriented candidate. As a Finimize editor, you will work closely with our editorial team, analysts, and audio producers to make sure everything we publish has a consistent tone of voice, is easy to understand, and is conversational.
You will also get involved with the processes that allow our team to produce world-class content each and every day, and do work that involves our product, growth, sales, and community teams.
To do this, you will have eagle-eyed editing skills, an ear for rhythm, tone, and flow – and creative flair and copywriting nous, too. Keep in mind that we do not expect our editors to be financial experts, though the confidence to understand, question, and challenge our analysts is a must. You might have experience as a financial or general copywriter, or editor.
Please note, Finimize HQ is based in London and we are operating a hybrid model of remote and office work. The ideal candidate, therefore, is UK based with regular access to our London offices.
