This role is for someone who wants both the platform and the accountability: a public profile, and a number to move. And while no two days are the same, your week might look something like:

Monday: Writing an email and blog post explaining the major themes which have impacted portfolio performance over the past month
Tuesday: Recording 8 short, snappy, 30 second clips which will feature in the Octopus Money app, helping to explain the "golden rules of investing".
Wednesday: Speaking with a journalist for an upcoming piece being written on the pros and cons of Premium Bonds.
Thursday: Presenting a live webinar to 500 customers, explaining the changes to IHT rules coming in April 2027, and what techniques are available to help mitigate the impacts.
Friday: Planning content for the upcoming quarter, tied to business objectives and senior leadership focuses
Set and launched the content strategy. What we say, where we say it, and how we know it worked. Every piece we publish traced back to a business objective.
Written regular columns for our newsletter partnerships. Recurring slots, fixed deadlines, a big audience that isn't ours yet, and your name on it.
Built and delivered a webinar programme. A repeatable suite of sessions for both clients and customers - the kind of thing where 500 people turn up and expect to leave knowing something they didn't.
Led the engagement strategy for our wealth planning clients. Advised customers expect more depth and more timeliness than a general audience. You'll own what they hear from us, and how often.
Become the voice of Octopus Money in the press. Building the journalist relationships from the ground up, being the named quote, and becoming the person the personal finance desks call when a story breaks.
A 45-minute competency-based video interview with Melanie, our Head of Marketing
An in-person copywriting task and "meet the team" session of around 60 minutes
A conversation with Dan, our CEO
Make every conversation matter: We care deeply about how we make customers and colleagues feel - on every call, email, screen and event. It won't always be perfect, but we'll always work harder to keep making it better.
Move with urgency and focus: We're impatient to make remarkable things. We focus on what matters most, make fast initial progress and then iterate forward.
Own it: We take full ownership of our work - from the smallest detail to the final outcome. We have the courage to break new ground, to hold ourselves and each other accountable, to tackle challenges head-on and find solutions that make a lasting impact.

Deep, current knowledge of UK personal finance - pensions, ISAs, mortgages, income tax, CGT and IHT - enough to hold your own with an adviser and explain it to someone who's never invested
A track record of producing content that changed behaviour, not just content that got read
Experience as a media spokesperson in print and/or broadcast, or clear evidence you could become one quickly
Genuinely excellent writing. This is the core craft of the role
Comfort operating in a regulated environment, and instinct for the line between guidance and advice
Backgrounds that tend to work well: financial journalism, personal finance content at a wealth manager, platform or fintech, or a regulated adviser who can write
Nice to have: relevant qualifications such as the CII Diploma or CISI equivalent, Energy and curiosity. This isn't the role for you if you lack initiative and a passion for speaking up and putting your views out into the world
Speed and judgement. When the Chancellor sits down, we want something useful published the same day
A bias for clarity over cleverness. If a customer has to read it twice, it isn't finished
Confidence in front of a camera, a webinar audience and a journalist on deadline
A collaborative mindset; happy to sit down with anyone in the business, from an adviser to the CEO, You can handle ambiguity. You're comfortable using judgement to create structure and applying first principle thinking
You're someone who 'chases the ball', rather than just hoping others pick it up. We look for determination, resilience and a healthy dose of optimism
You thrive in a fast-paced environment. You're open to course correct when needed, and challenge yourself and others to do better

We don't just talk about AI, we think hard about how to enable and train our people to make the most of it - re-thinking about what they do, and how to make AI part of their operating model, rather than a bolt-on. That's why we encourage people to spend dedicated time every Friday afternoon, dedicated to their own AI upskilling on Claude supported by regular lunch-and-learns and information sharing.
Hybrid working with 3 days in the office each week (Tuesday - Thursday)

Performance-based bonus
Company pension
Private medical insurance
Enhanced parental leave
Birthday day off
A supportive team who care about what they do
The chance to help people improve their lives
