The role

We’re looking for a talented, dynamic and fast-learning copywriter to support our expanding PropTech and nonprofit brands globally—with a particular focus on the US. 

This group-level role calls for 1 – 3 years’ experience in media, agency or corporate copywriting, which you’ll be required to develop into delivering B2B copywriting services for the US market—ideally, but not necessarily in PropTech.

Reporting to the Chief Communications Officer and working with equally talented and motivated colleagues in a small but dynamic Communications team, you will be responsible for our North American communications content (non-marcoms) as we expand and standardize our bouquet of services in support of the continued rapid expansion of our brands. 

Responsibilities

• You will be asked to write for both our brands and the group entity, across all markets, and hence collaborate across time zones (but not out of hours).
• You’ll produce persuasive copy, designed to build PayProp’s brand while encouraging interactions and conversions. 
• You should be comfortable writing in multiple different forms, (online, press releases, blog articles, publications, newsletters and product literature) across different content platforms industries and audiences. 
• You’ll contribute high-value thought leadership, white paper and blog content aimed at building trust, raising awareness and educating our target markets.
• In support of your output, you’ll be required to fulfill certain communications and administrative functions, e.g. join marketing and PR meetings and perform some supplier liaison and account liaison.
• You’ll also be expected to study (or refer to) our style guide for producing copy that adheres to our global and regional standards.

Required skills, aptitudes and experiences

• At least one year of proven success in a corporate, media or agency copywriting role for the US market
• Proven experience writing publications and/or newsletters and/or product copy
• An unerring ability to produce a steady stream of first-rate copy that doesn’t generally require heavy editing
• Familiarity with office productivity applications e.g. Microsoft, Google or Apple 
• Brilliant writing skills, a keen eye for detail, excellent grammar and spelling
• Versatility
• Great attitude (putting the team first, being flexible, always chasing the fine balance between quality and work rate, happy to accept constructive criticism)
• Resilience under pressure and a willingness to go beyond what is expected

Nice to have

Do not worry if you don’t have these—we look for ability (including the ability to learn), a general can-do outlook, and aptitude more than specifics.

• PropTech, FinTech and/or nonprofit industry experience     
• Business/property management/nonprofit media relationships
• A track record of working with distributed teams and departments across different geographies

What you’ll get

• A competitive salary with generous annual leave and 12 days’ additional paid leave to volunteer for your favorite charity
• Opportunity to grow your skills base in a wide and growing variety of communications areas
• Great working environment – you’ll rub elbows with copywriters, designers and marketers and be able to work with our development, financial, business, sales and support teams
• Growth opportunity in an internationally expanding group
