The opportunity
Are you a talented writer who enjoys turning complicated subjects into clear, engaging content? Someone who loves the craft of writing, but also understands how content supports wider marketing objectives and delivers results?
We're working with an established Leeds digital agency that's looking for a Senior Copywriter to take ownership of content across a portfolio of retained clients, predominantly within financial services.
This is a hands‑on writing role, covering everything from website copy and articles to email marketing and social content. You'll also get involved in content planning, performance reporting and presenting your recommendations directly to clients.
The agency is already embracing AI, particularly Claude, to make content creation more efficient. They're looking for someone who shares that mindset, but knows that good writing still requires human judgement, creativity and attention to detail.
What you'll be doing
- Planning and creating content for a range of clients, making sure it speaks to the right audiences and supports their marketing objectives.
- Writing and editing high‑quality website copy, articles, email campaigns and social content, adapting your style to different brands and audiences.
- Using AI tools to support research, drafting and content creation, while ensuring the finished work is accurate, engaging and well written.
- Creating content with search performance in mind, including keyword research, SEO best practice and emerging AI search trends.
- Planning social content and working with designers and other specialists when different formats are required.
- Monitoring content performance, analysing results and identifying opportunities to improve effectiveness.
- Producing monthly reports and presenting findings and recommendations directly to clients.
What you'll bring to the table
- Strong copywriting and editing experience, ideally gained within a marketing agency or in‑house content team.
- The ability to turn complex or technical information into clear, engaging and accessible content.
- Experience writing about more complex subjects, such as financial services, legal, technology or B2B. Financial services experience would be particularly useful, but isn't essential.
- A good understanding of content marketing, SEO fundamentals, social media and how to measure content performance.
- Experience using AI tools as part of your writing process, with the judgement to recognise what works and what needs improving.
- The confidence and organisational skills to manage multiple projects, work with different stakeholders and discuss your work with clients.
- Experience writing for regulated industries, or using Google Analytics 4 and Search Console, would be a bonus.
Why it's worth a look
- You’ll have real ownership of your work, from developing the content plan through to writing, editing and measuring results.
- You’ll join an established agency with a strong specialism in financial services and long‑standing client relationships.
- The business is already investing in AI and new ways of working, giving you the chance to develop your skills alongside evolving technology.
- You’ll work directly with clients, giving you the opportunity to influence content strategy rather than simply delivering briefs.
