Sr. Financial Services Content Strategist & Writer — New York, NY

Senior Financial Services Content Strategist & Writer – Alternative Investments

Ovis Creative is seeking a senior, hands-on content strategist and writer to help sophisticated financial-services clients turn complex investment ideas into clear, distinctive content. You will work across private equity, private credit, hedge funds, venture capital, asset management, and wealth management.

You will own the thinking before the writing: research the client and audience, lead executive interviews, uncover a meaningful point of view, create the brief, and personally deliver excellent copy.

What you will do

• Lead discovery with firm leaders, CIOs, portfolio managers, investment professionals, and marketing teams.

• Shape content strategy and develop briefs defining audience, objective, message, evidence, narrative, channel, and desired action.

• Write thought leadership, executive bylines, website and investment-strategy copy, white papers, case studies, and campaign content.

• Adapt complex financial material for institutional investors, LPs, family offices, HNW investors, advisors, and other audiences.

• Challenge generic ideas constructively, manage multiple assignments, and collaborate through editorial and compliance review.

• Apply sound SEO and emerging AI-discovery practices while maintaining credibility and clarity.

What you will bring

• Typically 15+ years of writing, editorial, communications, or content marketing experience, with substantial financial-services depth.

• Relevant investment-management experience and strong alternatives fluency; five or more years in alternatives is strongly preferred.

• Exceptional writing and editing, backed by substantive work samples.

• Evidence that you can interview senior investment executives, develop your own briefs, and take assignments through final copy.

• Strong audience and marketing judgment, independent research skills, and comfort with ambiguity, deadlines, and direct feedback.

• Agency or multi-client experience, direct PE/private-credit work, and familiarity with institutional and high-net-worth audiences are particularly valuable. Demonstrated capability matters more than a rigid years-of-experience threshold.

Application process

Along with your resume, you will be asked to provide 3–5 relevant samples (including a website, thought leadership, and a pitchbook). For each sample, explain what you personally researched, interviewed for, planned, and wrote. Include a content brief you developed, if available; confidential material may be redacted.
