Description

WE Talent are partnering with a market leading financial communications business to recruit a Financial Writer - an exciting opportunity to join a fast-paced, growing team, working closely with clients, shaping narratives, and creating compelling content across the financial services sector

This is an agency-side writing role - ideal for someone who combines strong financial services knowledge with the confidence to sit alongside Account Directors in client meetings, ask the right questions, and translate commercial objectives into a variety of compelling content.

The Role

You ll work closely with clients across financial services - including asset management, pensions, fintech and institutional finance - to understand what they re trying to achieve from their content.

Rather than being handed briefs, you ll help shape them.

You ll be inquisitive, commercially aware and confident engaging with senior stakeholders - identifying the drivers behind campaigns and turning those insights into high-quality written output.

The role blends:

  • Strategic thinking
  • Client engagement
  • Long-form writing

  • Conduct interviews with industry stakeholders and subject matter experts
  • Translate complex financial concepts into clear, engaging copy
  • Stay up to date with financial market trends and regulatory developments

About You

You are first and foremost a strong writer - but one who thinks commercially.

You ll likely have experience in financial journalism, financial B2B marketing or agency-side financial communications.

You bring:

  • Proven experience writing within financial services (asset management, pensions, banking, fintech etc.)
  • Strong writing capability
  • Confidence engaging directly with clients and senior stakeholders
  • Ability to shape ideas, not just execute pre-written briefs
  • An inquisitive mindset and ability to uncover the real story behind the message
  • Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail

Experience within an agency environment would be advantageous.

Why Join?

  • Work with respected financial services brands
  • Combine client interaction with meaningful, high-quality writing
  • Competitive salary
  • 25 days annual leave + bank holidays (pro rata)
  • Hybrid working
  • Pension scheme
  • Employee assistance programme
  • Team events and celebrations

If you re a confident financial writer who enjoys engaging with clients, shaping ideas and producing thoughtful, commercially aligned content - we d love to hear from you.
