Rebecca J.

Financial Journalist, Copywriter, Editor and PR Consultant

London, United Kingdom

$7K+ total earnings

With over 15 years' experience as a journalist, editor, and copywriter, I have developed a clear and engaging writing style, an impeccable eye for detail, and thorough research and interviewing skills. And I never use AI - ever. Indeed, I am increasingly working with projects focused on protecting and generating human content. I write and edit across sectors, although my primary experience is in finance and investment, with specialisms in fintech, financial markets and investment funds analysis, digital assets, and sustainable finance. Additionally, I have over 6 years' experience as a public relations and communications consultant turning founders into thought leaders through ghostwritten content and organic media relations. In 2025, my boutique PR and communications firm was named among the world’s top agencies by the Symbol Awards in 2025 for delivering industry-leading results for our fintech clients. This combined experience makes me an adaptable and highly efficient storyteller – a skill that ensures my clients get their point across clearly, reach target audiences, and become thought leaders in their industries. I am used to independent work and need little instruction to start and complete a task or project. Equally, however, I enjoy working collaboratively within a team to get the job done. With a strong focus on delivering results, I am driven and motivated while understanding the importance of flexibility in getting the best result. I look forward to working with you and contributing to your success.

David W.

Senior Writer & Editor | Human Writing in the Age of AI

Brighton, United Kingdom
$75 per hour
23 jobs
$100K+ total earnings

I write for people who expect more from professional content than words that simply sound plausible. For more than 25 years, I have written, edited and produced content for professional audiences across technology, healthcare, compliance, business, finance, news and specialist publishing. My writing is based on experience, research, judgement and an understanding of the subject and the people I'm writing for. I don't start with the words. I start with the subject, the audience and what needs to be said. That matters particularly now, when so much professional content has begun to sound the same. AI can produce grammatically correct prose very quickly. But fluent writing isn't necessarily good writing. It can be generic, predictable, over-explained and strangely detached from the subject. It can make an argument sound convincing without actually saying anything particularly useful. Good writing comes from knowledge, curiosity, judgement, a feel for language and an understanding of what matters. That's what I bring. I write articles, reports, newsletters, white papers and thought leadership, and I specialize in making complex subjects clear and accessible. I also edit and restructure existing content, research and fact-check material, and provide senior editorial direction when content needs more than a copy edit. Some relevant experience and results: • Increased newsletter open rates from 16–18% to 36–41% through editorial restructuring, audience-focused content selection and improved headline strategy. • Served as a Senior Domain Expert and Occupational Reviewer on AI-model evaluation projects for Mercor Solutions, San Francisco. Ranked in the top 1% of certified domain experts in journalism — reporting, writing and editing — by AI data company Micro1. • Founded and led a specialist publishing company, publishing a leading medical title and successfully selling its flagship publication. • Winner of a Financial Times Publications Editorial Award. Copy editor of the team shortlisted for writing the Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year. Runner-up in the UK Corporate Publishing Awards as Editor for Best Staff Newspaper. After 25 years of writing and editing, I know the difference between content that merely fills a page and content that actually communicates something. That's the difference I bring to every project.
