We’re building a better bank, and content is one of our most powerful tools for growth and trust

At Zopa, we’re reshaping how we show up to customers across every digital touchpoint – from first impression to product experience. Our website, app and CRM channels are now key growth drivers and strategic levers.

We’re looking for a Senior Content Manager to help us deliver a joined-up, effective and human content experience. You’ll be hands-on with content creation, but also own messaging frameworks, influence cross-functional teams and shape how we scale.

You’ll start by supporting multiple product areas and then become the go-to content owner for one of our core verticals. You’ll help define how Zopa’s products are experienced by what we say – not just how we say it – and ensure consistency and clarity across the journey.

This is a strategic, high-impact role for someone who thrives at the intersection of product, performance and brand. You’ll be joining a collaborative, forward-looking team with the ambition to set a new benchmark for fintech content in the UK.

What you'll be doing

• Own content planning and prioritisation for one or more product areas, aligning with product, UX, CRM, SEO goals and OKRs
• Plan, write and optimise content across the website, CRM, app, help centre and more – with a focus on performance, clarity and tone
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, product marketers and CRM to shape journeys and build compelling user experiences
• Help define and evolve messaging frameworks and product propositions that bring Zopa’s offering to life
• Act as the content lead in cross-functional squads, representing content in roadmap planning, discovery and delivery
• Audit and improve content based on what resonates and performs
• Apply insights from A/B testing, UX research and analytics tools to structure and iterate content
• Champion Zopa’s tone of voice – ensuring it’s applied confidently and consistently across platforms
• Contribute to raising the bar – offering feedback to freelancers or peers and helping codify content best practice
• Work with the social media manager to ensure messaging is consistent across campaigns (you won’t write social copy, but you’ll advise on tone, claims and alignment)

What we’re looking for

• Experience leading content across a product or channel area, ideally in a fintech, digital or fast-moving environment
• Strong editorial skills – able to simplify complex ideas and structure content that’s engaging and effective
• Strong creative and editorial instinct – able to recognise what makes content effective, adapt tone confidently across different touchpoints, and bring product storytelling into the user experience
• A sharp eye for what ‘great’ looks like – confident shaping content that feels human and engaging, and able to guide others to raise the bar across platforms
• Comfortable owning a roadmap and proactively identifying opportunities using analytics, SEO data and user research
• Familiarity with Google Analytics, engagement metrics and A/B testing platforms
• Working knowledge of SEO principles – and experience partnering with SEO teams or agencies
• A collaborative mindset – confident working with product, UX, compliance, CRM, PR and creative
• An appreciation for how tone of voice brings a brand to life – and the skill to write within one that’s already defined
• You take ownership of your work and care about how it performs once it’s live –
• You’re comfortable in a fast moving environment – ready to adapt when priorities shift and excited to shape how things are done
• Confident giving feedback and helping others improve – even without formal line management responsibilities

What success looks like:

• Content leadership and collaboration: Lead the content workstream for your area, delivering high-quality work on time, and contributing to operational and strategic planning
• SEO and performance: Collaborate with our SEO agency to improve rankings, grow traffic and build high-performing content journeys
• Conversion: Launch and optimise content that drives measurable improvements in user conversion across the funnel
• App experience: Ensure in-app content supports clear, trustworthy decision-making and feels aligned with the Zopa experience
• Cross-platform consistency: Champion clarity and consistency of messaging across web, CRM, app and social – especially where the product is referenced in multiple places
