Do you have a passion for Copywriting? We’re looking for an experienced and versatile Copywriter who will develop compelling, customer-focused, brand-led content across all of AXA branded customer facing Retail communications. This is a 12 month FTC.
You’ll be writing for all customer touchpoints across multiple channels, with a strong focus on both regulated and marketing documents, emails, website copy and SMS. You’ll work closely with stakeholders at all levels across the wider business.
At AXA we work smart, empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team and our customers. You'll work at least 40% of your week away from home, moving to the majority of your working week from September 2025.

What you’ll be doing:
- Work collaboratively with the wider team to develop copy for existing or new projects across multiple brands.
- Develop compelling digital copy, including social media.
- Proactively challenge and interrogate briefs to ensure all work meets core principles.
- Add value to every brief/project by generating creative copy that drives optimised customer outcomes.
- Use customer research, website analytics and media reports to draw insights from which to improve the quality and performance of copy.
- Understand where the copy will sit within a given customer journey, consider what else the customer will be receiving concurrently and what the call to action is to inform output.
- Comply with the definitions, requirements and principles of regulation and frameworks.
- Lead on copy approvals across key teams to ensure copy is clear for customers and drives good commercial outcomes.
Due to the number of applications we expect to receive for this role, we reserve the right to close this advert earlier than the listed closing date to ensure we’re able to effectively manage interest. Therefore, if you’re interested in joining us at AXA, please don’t hesitate to apply.
