Copywriting Manager, Marketing

Your career is an investment that grows over time!

Wealthsimple is on a mission to help everyone achieve financial freedom by reimagining what it means to manage your money. Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 4 million users who trust us with more than $50 billion in assets.
Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.

In this role, here’s what we need you to do:

• You're going to be the voice and brain of our brand for two of our most important properties: the website and the emails we send folks as they become clients (and then decide how much to trust us and give us money)
• Be ready to jump into other projects as well — product launches, promotions, presentations, and lots more
• Be a “player-coach”, sometimes working as an individual contributor, sometimes overseeing other creatives
• Maintain our brand voice and tone everywhere we’re talking to clients (or people who aren’t clients yet) 
• Manage members of our in-house creative team, offering regular coaching and feedback
• Be a thought leader who advocates for the latest industry best practices to improve performance results
• Help develop and maintain craft-specific documents — writing guidelines, tone of voice, etc
• Help evolve our creative process and team structure as new needs emerge
• Manage your team’s capacity and make sure the team is sufficiently resourced

We're looking for someone who:

• Is first and foremost a fantastic writer — smart, engaging, and succinct
• Recognizes great writing and creative ability — and helps bring these out in others 
• Brings extensive experience writing for consumer-facing brands, ideally in tech
• Understands finance (or is a convincingly quick study!) 
• Is a strong advocate for the client, rather than being led solely by briefs
• Understands different digital channel objectives, user acquisition and business goals to ensure high customer conversion and retention
• Moves quickly, is decisive and likes to solve complex problems through rigorous experimentation— making, shipping, testing and iterating copy and content as much as possible
• Can help with documentation like style guides, guidelines, etc
• Loves to work cross-funtionally and collaborate with designers, product managers, marketers, and more
• Knows how to manage feedback from multiple stakeholders while maintaining our creative vision

To apply, along with your resume, send us a portfolio containing 3 or more writing samples demonstrating your experience and versatility.
