Copywriter at FairMoney, Nigeria

At FairMoney, every word has a purpose. Whether it’s explaining a new feature, launching a new product, or building trust in our brand, great copy makes financial services feel simple, accessible, and human.

We’re looking for a creative, commercially minded Copywriter to join our Brand & Marketing team. You’ll work closely with Marketing, Product, Growth, Design, CRM, and Customer Experience teams to create clear, concise, and user-friendly copy for our digital products. This is a hands-on role for someone who understands consumer behavior, can adapt their writing across multiple channels, and knows how to craft messaging that resonates with Nigerian audiences.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Write clear, engaging, and user-centered copy across FairMoney’s digital products and marketing channels, including the mobile app, website, CRM campaigns, social media, product interfaces, and marketing materials.
  • Translate complex financial products and services into simple, relatable messaging that customers can easily understand and trust.
  • Create campaign concepts, headlines, taglines, scripts, and calls-to-action that drive acquisition, engagement, and retention.
  • Adapt messaging for different customer segments while maintaining a consistent FairMoney tone of voice across all touchpoints.
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Growth, Design, Customer Experience, and Marketing teams to develop and execute high-impact campaigns.
  • Create culturally relevant content that reflects the realities, language, and everyday experiences of Nigerian consumers.
  • Edit and proofread copy across the business, ensuring clarity, accuracy, consistency, and compliance with brand and regulatory standards.
  • Support product launches, seasonal campaigns, employer branding, partnerships, and customer education initiatives.
  • Stay informed on customer insights, market trends, and competitor messaging to improve communication effectiveness.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Marketing, English, or a related discipline.
  • 3–5 years of professional copywriting experience, ideally within fintech, banking, e-commerce, or any digital first business.
  • Exceptional written English with excellent editing, proofreading, and copywriting skills, and the ability to communicate complex ideas through clear, compelling messaging.
  • Strong understanding of Nigerian culture, consumer behavior, and local communication styles.
  • Professional proficiency in English and Yoruba, with the ability to create original marketing copy in both languages, not simply translate content.
  • Experience writing persuasive copy across a range of formats.
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating creativity, versatility, and measurable business impact.
  • Ability to simplify technical or financial concepts into content that is clear, engaging, and trustworthy.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, including Product, Design, Marketing, CRM, and Customer Support with the ability to incorporate feedback quickly and effectively.
  • Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.

Nice to Have:

  • Working proficiency in additional Nigerian languages such as Igbo or Hausa.
  • Experience localizing campaigns for different regions and audiences across Nigeria.
  • Background in UX writing.
  • Experience writing for regulated industries where accuracy and compliance are essential.
  • Familiarity with SEO, CRM communications, and AI-assisted content creation tools while maintaining high editorial standards.
