## Job description

ScaleMath is hiring a Staff Writer and Editorial Lead to work directly with the founder and help drive high-leverage initiatives across the business.

This is not a traditional "writing-only" role. You’ll be involved in content and editorial work, but you’ll also jump into partnerships, sales support, client calls, messaging, positioning, internal projects, and whatever else the business needs. The common thread is: you’re a high-judgment operator who can own work end-to-end and ship high-quality outcomes.

This role exists because our current internal “right hand” is becoming a bottleneck. We need someone with the same level of written English ability and attention to detail to share the load and help ScaleMath move faster without lowering standards.

## What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone who fits the following criteria:

* **Strategic + hands-on** – able to set direction and execute, owning initiatives end-to-end with real accountability
* **Exceptional attention to detail** – holds a high precision bar and catches issues others miss
* **Elite written communicator** – writes clearly, confidently, and with strong structure and flow
* **High-level copywriter / “sentence designer”** – strong at line-level writing: clarity, rhythm, persuasion, and restraint
* **Quality bar setter** – elevates the standard for what “good” looks like across content and messaging
* **Strong editorial judgment** – knows what to cut, what to keep, what to emphasize, and what will confuse the reader
* **Execution-first mindset** – reliably ships finished work, not just drafts, outlines, or ideas
* **Brand voice steward** – maintains consistency of tone, positioning, and messaging across channels
* **Trusted internal reviewer** – improves others’ work through thoughtful critique, rewrites, and refinement

## What you’ll do

This role will evolve over time, but you can expect to work across areas like:

* Writing and editing high-quality content (including founder-led content)
* Improving messaging, positioning, and narrative clarity across the business
* Reviewing and polishing important documents, emails, and customer-facing assets
* Supporting partnerships: outreach, coordination, follow-ups, and deal flow
* Joining client and partner calls where strong communication matters
* Supporting sales efforts with copy, decks, follow-ups, and materials
* Owning internal initiatives end-to-end (research, execution, and delivery)
* Acting as a force multiplier for the founder and the team

## What success looks like

* Work that used to bottleneck now ships consistently, without quality dropping
* Our content, messaging, and outbound feels sharper, clearer, and more “ScaleMath”
* Initiatives move forward because you proactively push them forward
* The founder’s time is protected and the business moves faster

## Who this is perfect for

This role is ideal if you’re someone who:

* Loves writing, editing, and high-quality communication
* Also enjoys business problem-solving and cross-functional execution
* Wants real ownership, not narrow job lanes
* Can switch between “craft” work and “operator” work without losing quality

## Location

UK is preferred, but we’re open to hiring globally for the right person.

## How to apply

Send us:

* A short note on why this role fits you
* 2–3 examples of your best writing (published or private is fine)
* Anything that shows how you operate (projects, initiatives you owned, etc.)
