Senior Copywriter, Creative

We’re looking for an experienced writer to join Wealthfront’s Creative Team, reporting to our Creative Director, Copy. As a pioneer in automated investing and money management, we offer tools and services to make financial dreams more accessible to a broader range of people than ever before. Our team is dedicated to delivering exceptional creative solutions that inspire, engage, and drive results. 

As a Senior Copywriter, you’ll help us find smart, engaging ways to bring our brand promise to life with strategic insight and impeccable execution—and you’ll play an important role in shaping our brand and influencing the future of financial services. 

You’ll be responsible for collaborating closely with cross-functional colleagues to create a wide range of awesome things: producing assets to support a tentpole brand campaign and explaining the ins and outs of complex financial products with clarity and just the right amount of flair. Not only will you find new, unexpected (and unexpectedly fun) ways to get people excited about their financial future, you’ll deliver the kinds of exciting creative ideas that no one would ever expect from a financial institution.

Our Senior Copywriter will be a hands-on doer and a wonder-worker with words who has a knack for putting just the right quip in just the right spot to get someone to smash that sign-up button.

• You believe in our mission. You know that money can be both intimidating and empowering, and you feel invested in our vision of how well-managed finances can reduce worry and enable our clients to live their lives more fully. You are motivated to make a meaningful impact, to improve the financial system, and to do your part to define a brand that is working to do just that.
• You sweat the small stuff. You recognize that the line between ok and exceptional can be very, very thin, and you’re innately driven to stay on the correct side of it. You make considered decisions in your work, can defend your creative choices, and are ready to revise your opinions in the face of compelling arguments because you care—deeply—about making the work the best it can be. You have high expectations for yourself and the people around you.

• You are resourceful and enterprising. You think like an owner, are solutions-oriented, and adapt quickly to the constraints and challenges of a nimble team in a fast-paced, rapidly growing business.
• You create memorable, engaging things that might-or-might-not look like marketing. You have experience finding the moments that bring a brand to life. You’re happy writing for matchbooks, Instagram ads, emails, billboards, and everything both in between and beyond. Whether big or small, you look for ways to intersect consumers’ lives to communicate a brand truth in a way that feels relevant, authentic, and memorable.

• Lead large, complex creative initiatives with a keen understanding of business objectives.
• Foster strong relationships with marketing and business teams to streamline collaboration and help unify our brand voice.

About Wealthfront

Wealthfront started with the ambition to transform the investment advisory business, with the goal to unlock access to high quality investment advice for millions who were underserved by the traditional institutions. We built one of the first automated investment products that allows you to invest in a personalized portfolio of thousands of companies in seconds for a remarkably low fee. We then expanded. We now work with partner banks to offer exceptional banking features through a Wealthfront Brokerage Cash Account, which makes it remarkably easy for people to automate their finances end-to-end and eliminated the hassle of money management, all of which resulted in attracting more than $80 billion of our client’s hard earned money, pioneering the robo-advisor category and transforming the broader industry. And yet, we have a long way to go to achieve our mission to build a financial system that favors people, not institutions. 

Wealthfront’s vision is to make it delightfully easy to build long-term wealth on your own terms. This vision is more relevant than ever because millions more people are getting into the market early and investing their hard earned savings in a handful of stocks. While this is a great way to start, it is inconsistent with building long-term wealth. We want to empower young investors to expand their horizon, and easily explore and execute on a wider range of investing strategies, make informed investment decisions that are consistent with their values and beliefs while also making it effortless to grow and compound their savings exponentially in a way that’s transformational to their lives and their long-term future.
