The opportunity:
As part of the growing creative team at FINN Partners you’ll tackle a wide range of client projects—always through the lens of audience needs and business impact—both leading work and executing it within an integrated content marketing system.
Who we’re looking for:
An editorially-savvy ACD, Copy who is as comfortable writing a compelling email headline as they are building a complex messaging framework for a new product or service line. 
You: 
  • Understand that effective copywriting comes from a deep understanding of who you’re writing for, what motivates them, and how to communicate in their terms.
  • Are a words nerd who isn’t afraid to embrace new formats and technologies.
  • Can effectively architect content strategy to help ensure copy is consistent, compelling, and true to brand.
  • Take ownership of projects from start to finish, asking “What if?” every step of the way. 
  • Can frictionlessly shift between directing writers to execute your vision and writing yourself.
  • Take pride in your craft, but you also know empathetic collaboration yields better work. 
  • Know how to use original copywriting, and the deep strategic thinking that shaping effective content requires, to ensure clients stay differentiated and ahead of trends.
     
Your role will include:
  • Collaborating with a multi-disciplinary team of writers, art directors, project managers, strategists, and all-around nice people to develop and execute multi-channel creative concepts that are on brief and on brand.
  • Thinking strategically before you write: interrogating briefs, identifying the sharpest insight, and ensuring the creative idea is doing real work, not just sounding good.
  • Concepting, writing, and copyediting across a wide range of formats: websites, social media, email, video storyboards, sales collateral, presentations, infographics or data visualization, brand guidelines, messaging frameworks, and content strategies.
  • Functioning as a creative and strategic partner to the CD, helping shape the thinking and stepping into that elevated role with confidence when needed.
  • Ensuring cohesiveness of brand voice across a complex system of business units within larger brand systems.
  • Balancing pitching bold new ideas with efficiently developing fresh content within existing templates or approaches.
  • Leading multiple projects and deadlines while maintaining high standards of quality.
  • Presenting your work with confidence, clarity, and strong rationale.
  • Staying connected and collaborative with the team, but working independently and proactively when needed.

What you’ll be a part of:
  • One of the fastest-growing integrated marketing and PR agencies.
  • A team of talented, kind, and collaborative professionals across disciplines.
  • Leadership that’s approachable and committed to your development.
  • A shared commitment to delivering bold, meaningful work that drives results for clients.
  • A culture where creative and strategy sit at the same table, and both have a real voice.

Where will you work?
Anywhere in the U.S. We're a remote-first workplace with optional in-office days in Boston, Chicago, Detroit, LA, Nashville, New York, Portland, Washington, DC, and more. (Pacific time zone preferred to best align with team collaboration hours.)
You’re a strong candidate if you have: 
  • A portfolio highlighting a range of copywriting, editing, and strategic thinking across long and short form.
  • ACD-level experience leading work within a creative department, either at an agency or in-house at a financial brand.
  • Experience in financial services—wealth management, banking, or fintech—and a knack for making complex products feel human.
  • A high degree of comfort with strategy—able to work beyond execution to shape messaging frameworks, define positioning, and connect creative output to broader business and audience objectives.
  • A dedication to collaboration, empathy, and innovation.
  • Proficiency collaborating via software such as Google Docs/Drive, Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Word/PowerPoint, Box, and Figma.
  • People who you’ve worked with before who will vouch for your copywriting/editing and leadership skills.

What We Do

1400+ People. 3 Continents. 33 Offices. We are a global integrated marketing agency transforming and inspiring the world of communications every day. A LETTER FROM PETER FINN: DECEMBER 2011. FINN PARTNERS WAS BORN. After 11 years serving as co-CEO of an historic agency that carried my father’s name— and mine!—and after 30+ years of working at the firm, I wanted to build something different, bold, meaningful and amazing for clients, our colleagues and the community. "Amazing"​ was, and is, for me an important word. I imagined we could be "amazing"​ every day, knowing this is a goal not always achieved but always pursued. A place where talented people could gather and do big things for clients as well as make a difference to the communities important to us. WE LAUNCHED WITH A GROUP WHO SHARED A VISION. This was to be a "new"​ agency model, driven by a collaborative spirit. We asked, "Can we bind our 60-year legacy to the energy and speed of today’s hi-tech world?"​ We had $24 million in fees at our founding. Today, we have more than $85 million in fees, over 700 colleagues and 18 offices across three continents. Our Founding Managing Partners, highly respected colleagues who took the leap with me from our former agency, have been joined by the principals of other great agencies that became Finn Partner companies. So many other talented individuals are with us, too, intrigued by the idea of doing amazing things in an amazing workplace community. WE’VE MADE OUR MARK QUICKLY. Finn Partners has been named “Best New Agency,” “Best PR Agency to Work for in North America” and“Best Mid-Sized Agency of the Year” three times. Now, we’re one of the world’s largest agencies. WE ARE A YOUNG AGENCY. We share the genes of a respected agency that pioneered today’s integrated communications. But we are not them. We are unique. We are ourselves. We are focused on the future, building that future during each amazing day.
