About The Position

Writing here feels different. Our voice is warm, clear and thoughtful. And we’re looking for someone who takes pride in bringing that tone to life, even on a deadline. We’re seeking another thoughtful voice and executor who brings focus to fast-moving projects, can juggle competing deadlines and writes in a voice that seems genuinely human. Someone who finds joy in polishing a paragraph, catching what others might miss and helping people feel informed and cared for, whether they’re a client, future client or colleague. This is a fast-paced role where you'll wear many hats and shift gears often. You’ll need to be organized, agile and adaptable. And you’ll need to write clearly, edit thoughtfully and keep communications moving forward. A wide range of writing projects will come your way and a willingness to roll up your sleeves and jump in wherever needed is essential. We are Aspiriant, a leading, independent, 100% employee-owned wealth management firm. Our core values guide us to seek out a broad range of perspectives, talent and backgrounds to achieve our mission; one where all staff contribute to and share our success. We recognize, respect and value the contributions of each employee, and we strive to cultivate a work environment that strikes an agreeable balance between our professional and personal lives.
