Allica is the UK’s fastest growing company - and the fastest-growing financial technology (Fintech) firm ever. Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in Fintech.

Established SMEs are the backbone of local communities - representing over a third of our economy - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers.

Department Description

We are a small but mighty team responsible for telling Allica’s story to build trust, drive growth and bring our product and purpose to life for our key audiences: established business owners, brokers and accountants. Our team looks after brand marketing, communications, partnerships and includes our in house creative studio.

Role Description

Business owners don’t have time for waffle. They want clear, simple communication that helps them get on with running their business. That’s why strong, thoughtful copy matters – and why this role is such an exciting opportunity.

As Allica’s Copywriter, you’ll be part of our in-house creative studio, supporting the Copy & Content Specialist to deliver sharp, on-brand copy across every channel. You’ll take on the day-to-day content writing that keeps the business moving: from web pages and emails, to brochures, blogs and social posts – with a particular focus on medium- to long-form content.

But this role isn’t just about writing what’s in front of you. You’ll help improve how the whole business creates content – using AI to speed things up, build better first drafts and support self-service, while still applying your own judgement, expertise and craft to produce high-quality outputs. AI won’t be writing everything. You’ll remain a hands-on writer, using your skills to elevate, critique and refine whatever comes through the studio.

If you love turning complex ideas into simple stories, and you enjoy being the person who makes writing feel easy for everyone else, this role is for you.
