We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. If you're passionate about learning new things, have a good understanding of design and are keen to join our mission, we'd like to hear from you.

And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we'd especially love to hear from you if you're from an under-represented demographic.

Your mission

You'll be part of Wise's global mission to build an open, fair, and human financial system - to make money without borders the new norm. Because people without borders need money without borders.

You'll be matched with a Wise sponsor in Design, collaborating with other Wisers and fellow interns on cross-functional projects. We plot our moves every quarter, and your mission will be mapped out with your sponsor. You'll have plenty of room to help define your scope.

Here's how you'll be contributing:

  • You'll get to know Wise customers, building empathy and deep understanding of their needs
  • You'll be honing and flexing your craft skills in a collaborative environment
  • You'll be connecting with your sponsor, fellow interns, and the broader design community to inject fresh creative thinking into the business

  • Fun offices with social activities - have a sneak peak of our London office
  • Be part of a global team with a global mindset
  • Meet with some of the most influential people at Wise on this programme
  • Be mentored by a Design discipline expert
  • Develop your craft and experiment in a live environment

Content Design

Content designers at Wise work in partnership with product designers and researchers to design useful, usable, delightful, and accessible content. As a content designer, your responsibility is to make sure we give users the right information, at the right time, in a way they expect. And that content throughout the Wise experience - from entire journeys down to button labels - is clear, inclusive, and on brand.

We looking for the following experience:

  • You've got a selection of work that shows how you've designed clear, accessible and inclusive content to solve a problem - this could be UX writing or long-form content. This showcases how you approached the problem, your thought process, any learnings, and the impact you made (if applicable).
  • You're familiar with style, vocabulary and tone of voice guidelines. You know when to ramp it up or tone it down. You might have a case study to demonstrate this.
  • You think big and think small - you've got a keen eye for detail but always consider the big picture user journeys and how your words impact them.
  • You know the importance of asking the right questions and using data and research to get down to the real problems.

Heads up - this is a UX-writing focused role, so won't be suitable if you're looking for experience in creative copywriting or marketing.

Salary (annual)
28,000 - 28,000 GBP

We're people without borders - without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive. We're proud to have a truly international team, and we celebrate our differences.

Every Wiser should feel that they can be themselves at work. Inclusive teams help us live our values and make sure every Wiser feels respected, empowered to share their contributions towards mission zero and able to progress in their careers.

Having diverse teams that reflect our diverse customer base helps us build a better product. We can be more creative and empathetic to our customer's needs and life experiences and makes sure we leave no-one behind on our journey to mission-zero.
