Performance Marketing Copywriter

East Coast-based performance copywriters with fintech or consumer finance experience. This one's for you 👀

A well-known consumer fintech brand is looking for a PMM Copywriter to support their growth and acquisition teams on a contract basis.

This is a role built for a writer who knows how to make financial products feel simple, urgent, and worth acting on across every paid channel they touch. Not a brand storytelling role. Not a long-form content role. Pure performance copy, built to convert.

The team needs someone who can move fast across paid social, digital ads, banners, video scripts, and Connected TV, writing short-form hooks, headlines, CTAs, and testing variants that actually move the needle.

They're specifically looking for writers who can speak to results. Not just "I wrote ads" but "here's what we tested, here's what worked, here's why."

This is the type of role for someone who:

• Thinks in messaging angles, not just sentences
• Is comfortable writing 10 variants of the same CTA and knowing why each one serves a different purpose
• Has written for fintech, banking, investing, crypto, or another regulated consumer category
• Understands how copy lives and performs in-market, not just how it reads on a doc
• Can partner closely with growth, design, and product marketing without needing a lot of hand-holding

You'll be writing across:

• Paid social and digital ad copy
• Display banners and short-form acquisition assets
• Video scripts and Connected TV spots
• A/B test variants and messaging frameworks
• Campaign hooks, headlines, and CTAs across funnel stages
• Consumer-facing messaging for financial products

A few things worth knowing upfront:
• East Coast-based candidates strongly preferred
W2 contract engagement
• Fintech or consumer finance background is a real requirement, not a nice-to-have
• Strong portfolio of performance work required, be ready to speak to results

I'll be prioritizing people whose portfolios show clear performance intent, ads that were built to convert, not just to look good. Feel free to apply here
