For over 31,000 growing businesses and HR teams seeking a comprehensive, all-in-one HR suite, Workable emerges as the premier solution. We uniquely combine the world’s most widely adopted Applicant Tracking System (Workable Recruiting) with a full-spectrum employee management system (Workable HR). At Workable, we empower companies to focus on what truly matters: hiring the right people and fostering their growth
While we take HR seriously, we maintain a lighthearted and collaborative culture. At Workable, you’ll find smart people who have fun, learn, innovate, and help others do the same. We respect everyone, we hire the best, and make sure every experience is special.
We are looking for a UX writer to join our team, with strong copywriting and editing skills in both Greek and American English. We value writers who take a user-centered approach and rely on data and testing to guide their decisions. The ideal candidate excels at creating clear, concise copy that helps users understand their options and achieve their goals. Adhering to our tone of voice and UX writing best practices is crucial, as it ensures a seamless and consistent user experience for the recruiters, candidates, managers and employees, who use Workable daily.
This role would suit someone who can:
- Write clear, polished copy for every new feature we ship including product names, navigational elements, error messages, emails, tutorials, landing pages, and notifications.
- Create copy guidelines for our Design System components, across multiple platforms (web and mobile native apps).
- Work closely with Product Designers and Product Managers to ensure we keep to our brand voice, follow UX writing best practices and use correct US grammar.
- Drive consensus across teams like Product, Engineering, Brand, Marketing and Customer Success and advocate for solutions that balance user needs with our business goals.
- Influence strategic decisions across and within products to improve the overall experience and ensure consistency across platforms.
- Document and curate our product glossary, style guides and drive a successful UX Copy process.
Your day-to-day work will include:
- Get a request from a Product Designer, asking for your review and approval for certain copies in their designs. You will make changes directly in Figma, asking them a few questions on Slack to better understand the user flow.
- Join a kick-off meeting about a new project with the Product Manager, Product Designer and UX Researcher who will be working with you on this one. You will go through business requirements and research findings, and set off to work on a copy strategy that will enhance the user’s experience.
- Spend some uninterrupted work time to focus on writing, rewriting and writing again. You will ruthlessly edit and iterate on copy to be as simple as possible, but not simplistic.
- Add a new term in the terminology glossary and tweak the copy of a help text in the relevant Design System component.
