Seeking a UX Writer, Digital Content, within its Experience Design team . This team is based in Newark, NJ and this is fully remote.
We're looking for a writer who can make UX feel EZ. Someone who knows when to give clear, concise direction that inspires action, but can also engage any user in a friendly conversation – even about complicated financial topics – with easy-to-understand, approachable language. A writer who knows when to be nurturing and when to be direct. A writer who can help us establish the unique voice for us as we build outsuite of digital customer experiences.
You must be able to deliver clean and powerful copy across multiple deadlines and initiatives, work well with others, be passionate about the smallest projects, and be driven by business outcomes and not just hosannas of colleagues who 'love your stuff.'
Of course, since we're building out new design and UX disciplines and processes, rolling with the punches is important. But you'll also have the opportunity to build and shape a whole new way of helping people genuinely understand their finances and the solutions that can help them meet their most important goals.
As you interface with the leadership across our business units and marketing, product and tech teams, you will be motivated, dynamic and passionate, someone who leads by example in our hallways and whiteboard sessions and takes feedback in stride.
You'll be part of an organization developing digitally centric customer engagement and service platforms with and for several business units including group insurance, investments, asset management, life insurance and annuities. We're proud of our agile environment and how it motivates all of us to expand our skills, test our creative boundaries and share new ideas.

Exceptional interpersonal and organizational skills that show an ability to play well with others, as well as an outcome- and process-driven mindset
Experience, such as on a financial or tech account, that required communicating often complicated activities and concepts in a very human way
