If you're looking for a place that values strong relationships, embraces diverse ideas-all while having fun together-Grubhub is the place for you!
About You: You are proactive and passionate about communicating in plain language - making the complex simple. You love thinking about and designing solutions that solve customer problems. You're a strong collaborator who can work with Design, Product and Engineering ensuring a consistent voice across Grubhub's brands. You're a natural storyteller, a systems thinker, a designer of content, and people love to work with you.
We are looking for a UX Copywriter to help create exceptional digital experiences. In this role you'll utilize Grubhub's voice and content standards for web and mobile to solve user needs. The position requires a customer focus, data savviness, and awareness of current practices for mobile and browser UX design and content. The ideal candidate will be comfortable with ambiguity, passionate about designing with words, and able to act well with minimal direction.
The Impact You Will Make

• Help define the content strategy and writing guidelines for self-help products
• Identify opportunities to improve UX content solutions to evolve self-help products, always advocating for and delighting the user
• Understand and empathize with how the words we use make our users feel
• Partner with Design, Product, and Engineering partners to co-create content for experience(s) we're trying to launch or evolve
• Join our UX researchers to observe and conduct user testing and research to inform our experiences
• Write clearly, concisely, and fearlessly for all of our products' elements including emails, microcopy, push notifications, text messages, help text, and probably some things we haven't thought of yet
• Actively seek and openly receive feedback for your work
• Provide feedback in all stages of a product's development lifecycle-from brainstorming to retrospectives
• Uphold and expand our voice, tone, and style guidelines
• Think about the copy you write holistically. In other words, understand how the words you use impact the user now, but also in other parts of the user journey
• Be able to clearly present, explain, and justify your copy decisions to anyone who might ask about them

***Please include on your resume a link to samples of your work that show an experience across different content types. You may show us content you've created for user interfaces, microcopy, user education, direct or transactional emails, style guides or product launch content.***
