Senior Copywriter

Emerald Zebra on behalf of our client, a global trading and fintech group, is looking to hire a Senior Copywriter to be based in Limassol, Cyprus.

Reports to: Senior Manager, Brand and Creative
Team: Creative, Copy
Division: Brand Marketing

The Role

Do you love finding the words that make a complicated idea feel effortless? Can you write a scroll-stopping ad one minute and a considered brand piece the next, and make both sound unmistakably "us"? Then you might be exactly who we need in our Creative team.

As senior copywriter, you'll write across the full spread of our output: performance ads, landing pages, email, social and web, for some of the brands in the group's portfolio. You'll work hand-in-hand with our Senior Manager, Brand and Creative, the Design team and centralise / regional marketing teams.

Right now, the focus is capacity. Demand for copy is growing fast across our brands, and we want to give the Copy team the headroom to take on more, move quickly and keep raising the bar, rather than stretching the current team thinner. This role exists to add that capacity. Trading and fintech experience is a bonus. What matters more is that you can turn something genuinely complex into something clear, and that you care as much about the idea as the execution.

About Our Client

Our client is a global trading and fintech group behind multiple distinct brands. Each has its own customers, markets and personality, from retail traders to institutional clients evaluating liquidity and technology. That variety is what makes the Creative team interesting; no two briefs sound the same, and no single tone of voice covers everyone.

What You'll Do

• Write across paid, owned and organic channels, including landing pages, ads, email/CRM, social, in-app messaging and web content, for one or more of the group's brands.
• Take briefs from Brand, acquisition, customer, regional teams and wider business stakeholders and turn them into copy that's clear, on-brand and built to convert.
• Add real capacity to the Copy team as production volume grows, helping the team take on more without stretching thin.
• Work closely with the Design team to develop copy and concept together, from the first idea through to final delivery.
• Help protect and evolve each brand's distinct tone of voice as we scale; champion it, don't just apply it.
• Adapt copy for localisation and in-market/compliance review, so nothing gets lost, or confused in the translation process.

Qualifications and Experience

• English at native or near-native level, written and spoken.
• 8+ years' copywriting experience, in-house or agency-side.
• A portfolio that shows range: sharp performance copy and more considered brand campaigns or editorial writing.
• Comfortable working at pace, without letting quality slip when volume increases.
• Experience ideally in trading, however we are open to financial services or another regulated sector

The Type of Person We're Looking For

• Passionate about copywriting and about finding the idea, not just the words.
• A first-class communicator, on the page and in the room.
• Organised and deadline-focused, comfortable juggling several brands and briefs at once.
• Has the rigour and attention to detail to write for a highly regulated industry.
• Collaborative, and genuinely enjoys working closely with designers, marketers and stakeholders across the business.
• Thrives in a fast-paced, multi-brand environment where the next brief rarely sounds like the last.
• Can share a portfolio or link to previous work.

Package and Benefits

• Salary: EUR 2,800 to 4,400 gross per month
• 12% annual performance bonus on the annual salary
• EUR 4,500 yearly cash allowance (EUR 375 per month, taxable)
• Hybrid working: 3 days in the office and 2 days from home
• 30 days per year remote working policy
• 40 days annual leave including public holidays
• Private medical insurance, 100% covered for the employee and 50% for dependents
• Work permit support and costs covered for candidates based in Cyprus who need one
