About
The Role We’re looking for a Senior Writer to join our Creative Studio and shape how Motorway communicates across every single touchpoint. This is a unique dual-audience role: you will write for both car sellers (B2C) and our car dealer network (B2B), reporting directly to the Head of Creative. You’ll operate across the full creative and editorial spectrum - crafting everything from brand campaigns, social and CRM flows to longer-form articles, in-product copy, sales and internal collateral. You’ll be a talented writer who can translate complex topics (UK car ownership, EV adoption, and live auction dynamics) into clear, compelling narratives. Additionally, you will be the editor for AI-assisted content, ensuring our content scales without losing its edge.
What You'll Do Execute across the funnel: Concept, write and edit copy for the entire end-to-end user journey - including brand campaigns, web/app, email, performance marketing, and B2B collateral. Steward the Motorway voice: Maintain, evolve, and enforce Motorway’s brand voice guidelines so we sound distinct and consistent across all channels. Coordinate copy across the end-to-end experience. Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Product, CRM, and Operations to turn messaging into a coherent, seamless customer experience. Lead on long-form and editorial content. Articles, thought leadership, and community (Reddit, Meta) content that builds Motorway's authority and maximises visibility in both human and AI search. Edit and elevate AI-generated copy. Ensure AI-assisted work sounds like Motorway, and establish the prompts and guardrails that allow us to scale content using AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT) while maintaining strict quality control. Translate complexity: Demystify the automotive industry. Turn dry regulatory changes, market trends, and transaction processes into intuitive, high-converting copy. Optimise for Performance: Monitor content performance metrics (engagement, conversion, LLM indexing) and proactively iterate to drive business results.
