About Beyond Finance

Beyond Finance is an exciting next generation FinTech company headquartered in Houston, TX with additional offices in San Diego, Chicago, and Beverly, MA. We provide financial products that are easy to use and accessible that aim to improve people’s lives. As the consumer debt market continues to grow in the United States, we have made it our objective to create a transparent and fair debt management service that is customized to the consumer’s individual situation. 

Our Leadership team has extensive experience and expertise in the financial services and debt

management marketplace. We are reinventing the market by investing in innovative technologies to best serve our customers. And what sets us apart as a company is the people that we have in the organization. Our team spirit and company culture further solidified the foundation to provide world class services and create a fun and innovative working environment.

About the Role

At Beyond Finance, we are expanding our marketing efforts, and we are looking for an SEO Copywriter to join the team. This focus on SEO requires the creation of new service-focused web pages, updates to existing web pages, and publishing of blog posts. In the long-term (6 - 12 months) this role may transition into a general Copywriter position, assisting all marketing channels, but in the short-term SEO content will be the primary focus.

 

SEO Copywriter responsibilities include conducting thorough research on industry-related topics, generating ideas for new content types, proofreading articles before publication, and monitoring key competitor content. Ultimately, you'll deliver quality writing pieces that appeal to our audiences, attract customers, ensure consistency, and boost brand consideration.

 

What You’ll Do

Produce copy for service-based web pages, aligning with SEO strategy developed by Digital Marketing Manager.

Research and write blog posts highlighting Beyond Finance’s service and/or general financial advice.

Submit work to stakeholders for input and approval, including project owner and Legal/Compliance Department.

Proofread and edit content before publication.

Coordinate with marketing and design initiatives to illustrate blog posts.

Identify customers' needs and gaps in our content and recommend new topics.

Ensure all-around consistency (tone, style, brand personality, fonts, and images).

 

What We Look For

  • Proven work experience as a Copywriter.
  • Portfolio of published articles. 
  • Strong understanding of the type of content that will add value to white hat SEO campaigns.
  • Experience doing research using multiple sources.
  • Familiarity with web publications.
  • Excellent writing and editing skills in English.
  • Ability to meet deadlines, manage multiple projects, and remain flexible as priorities can change.
  • Hands-on experience with Content Management Systems (e.g. WordPress) preferred.
  •  Reports to: Digital Marketing Manager

Why join us?

  • We are looking for great people to join our fast-paced, growing, and innovative business and make a positive impact. More importantly, our team spirit and culture are what really set us apart as a company. We’re a world class Financial Technology company that loves what we do…and we have fun doing it! We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.  No agencies at this time please.

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

Everyone at Beyond is hard-working, smart, and gets the job done. Because of that, there's a lot of trust when it comes to taking the time off we need. Leadership offers a generous PTO plan to support wellness and growth outside of work, and everyone encourages each other's non-work hobbies and interests through Slack channels and coffee chats!
