Full Job Description
We are launching a new financial application and are looking for an exceptional Senior Copywriter who can move with urgency, think in systems, and write with precision and purpose. This is not a traditional copywriter role, as we need someone who deeply understands how words shape experience, trust, and action across every touchpoint of a digital product.

You will work alongside brand strategists, UX designers, product managers, and engineers to craft the voice of a brand from the ground up and bring it to life. If you thrive in fast-moving, high-stakes environments and have a passion for making complex financial concepts feel clear and human, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Do
  • Lead the development of brand voice, tone guidelines, and messaging frameworks from discovery through launch.
  • Write across the full product ecosystem - onboarding flows, UI microcopy, error states, notifications, marketing campaigns, and beyond.
  • Collaborate closely with UX designers to ensure copy and design work as a unified system, not separate layers.
  • Translate complex financial concepts into plain, compelling language that builds trust with a broad US audience.
  • Develop and maintain a consistent brand narrative across web, mobile, email, social, and paid channels.
  • Participate in cross-functional sprint planning and creative reviews, iterating quickly based on feedback.
  • Partner with compliance and legal teams to ensure all copy meets regulatory requirements in the financial services space.
  • Contribute to content strategy decisions, including naming, taxonomy, and information architecture.

What You Bring
  • 7+ years of professional copywriting experience, with meaningful work in both brand and UX contexts required
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating work across digital products, campaigns, and brand systems - ideally including financial services, fintech, or other regulated industries
  • Deep understanding of UX writing principles: microcopy, content design, user flows, and accessibility considerations
  • Proven ability to define and sustain brand voice at scale - from headline to help text
  • Experience working in agile, cross-functional product teams with fast turnaround cycles
  • Excellent instincts for what resonates with real people - particularly those navigating money, trust, and long-term decisions
  • Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to make confident creative decisions in a launch environment
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit - you give and receive feedback graciously
  • Experience with fintech, banking, wealth management, or insurance products
  • Familiarity with design tools such as Figma or content management platforms
  • Exposure to A/B testing, content analytics, or conversion-focused writing
  • Understanding of SEO best practices and how they intersect with brand voice

Salary Range: $80,000-$94,500 (Final compensation will be based on the selected candidate's location, experience, and other job-related factors.)

This opportunity can be hybrid across the Zions Bancorporation Footprint or 100% remote within the United States.

Why Join Us
  • Working with a talented, driven team that values craft and moves fast without sacrificing quality, you'll:
  • Have the opportunity to build something meaningful from the ground up - your fingerprints will be on this brand
  • Enjoy a flexible, remote-first work environment with occasional in-person collaboration
  • Be part of a nationwide US launch scope with real visibility and creative impact

Benefits
  • Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance - START DAY ONE!
  • Life and Disability Insurance, Paid Parental Leave and Adoption Assistance
  • Health Savings (HSA), Flexible Spending (FSA) and dependent care accounts
  • Paid Training, Paid Time Off (PTO) and 11 Paid Federal Holidays, and any applicable state holidays
  • 401(k) plan with company match, Profit Sharing, competitive compensation in line with work experience
  • Mental health benefits including coaching and therapy sessions
  • Tuition Reimbursement for qualifying employees enrolled in an accredited degree program related to the needs of the business, maximum of $5,250 per calendar year, employees are eligible for the program upon hire
  • Employee Ambassador preferred banking products
