NerdWallet, a platform that provides financial guidance to consumers and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), is looking for a Writer in the UK to cover the personal finance choices that millions of people grapple with every day.

We're seeking a writer that is adept at translating complex topics — such as loans, mortgages, banking, insurance, energy and general personal finance — into conversational articles that frame the answers our audience seeks with the context it deserves. They should also be able to proactively identify trends and news that will interest readers, as well as media that can link to and potentially syndicate our content.

In addition to writing compelling and informative stories, and building relationships and the brand, you also would own areas of the NerdWallet UK website, and use the standard methodologies for search optimization to ensure that those who need help can easily find it. You would measure the success of your content and build on it — all with the goal of creating the internet's best answers for the topics you cover.

• Contribute ideas that strengthen NerdWallet's approach to product reviews and comparisons.
• Help craft NerdWallet's consumer experiences, including tools.

Our content team includes writers and editors with experience in journalism, and others who have spent years as successful freelancers or in fields outside of journalism.

What we have in common: We take initiative. We think strategically. We problem-solve effectively. We're flexible. We're highly collaborative.
