Help shape the future of one of the UK's leading mortgage and financial advice brands.

We're looking for a talented Digital Content Writer to join MAB at an exciting moment in our journey. With a major brand refresh underway and a renewed focus on growing our digital presence, you'll have the opportunity to influence how millions of customers discover, engage with and trust our content.

This isn't just a copywriting role. It's a chance to combine creativity, content strategy, SEO and emerging AI search techniques to create content that performs, converts and makes a real impact. If you're passionate about writing, curious about the future of search, and love turning complex topics into compelling content, we'd love to hear from you.

About the role

As our Digital Content Writer, you'll be a key part of the Creative Services team, helping bring our brand to life across digital channels.

You'll create engaging, high-performing content for our website, email journeys, guides and adviser network channels, ensuring every word reflects our brand voice and supports our business goals. Working closely with colleagues across Creative, Digital and Marketing, you'll develop content that not only ranks well in traditional search engines but also performs effectively in AI-powered search and generative experiences.

We're looking for someone who enjoys both the craft and science of content. Someone who can write compelling copy, analyse performance data, and continuously optimise content to improve visibility, engagement and conversion.

What you'll be doing

Writing compelling, customer-focused copy across web, email, guides and adviser-facing content
Creating content that supports our brand refresh and strengthens our digital presence
Applying SEO best practice, including keyword research, on-page optimisation and internal linking
Using emerging GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) techniques to improve visibility in AI-driven search experiences
Collaborating with Digital Marketing to prioritise content opportunities that deliver the greatest impact
Translating technical, regulatory or product information into clear, engaging content
Analysing content performance and using insights to improve traffic, engagement and conversions
Maintaining and championing MAB's tone of voice and editorial standards
Supporting a test-and-learn culture by continually measuring, refining and evolving content
Staying ahead of trends in SEO, AI search and content marketing, sharing insights across the wider team

About You

You'll be an experienced Digital Content Writer who understands that great content needs both creativity and commercial impact.

You'll bring:

Proven experience creating digital content within a marketing, content or copywriting role
Strong SEO knowledge and a track record of creating content that drives organic performance
Experience with, or a genuine enthusiasm for, AI search and Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO)
Outstanding writing, editing and proofreading skills
The ability to adapt tone of voice across multiple audiences and channels
Confidence using data, analytics and search insights to shape content decisions
Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines
A collaborative mindset and experience working alongside creative, marketing and digital teams
Curiosity, innovation and a passion for keeping pace with the changing search landscape

It would be great if you also have:

Experience within financial services or another regulated industry
Experience using CMS platforms, ideally Umbraco
Familiarity with tools such as GA4, SEMrush, Hotjar and Power BI
Experience managing digital assets within a DAM platform
