Proofreader and Copy Editor

Zions Bancorporation•Salt Lake, UT

2d•Onsite

About The Position

Our in-house Creative Studio produces a high volume of marketing and communications assets across digital, print, paid, and earned media — and we hold every word, every pixel, and every link to the same standard we hold our brand. We're looking for a meticulous Proofreader and Copy Editor who takes genuine pride in getting it right before anything goes out the door. This role sits at the intersection of language, compliance, and digital quality — and the right person will be as comfortable marking up a print brochure as they are clicking through a landing page to confirm every button routes where it should.

Requirements

A bachelor's degree in communications, marketing, journalism, English, or a related field
3-5+ years of proofreading and copy-editing experience, ideally within financial services, a regulated industry, or a high-volume in-house or agency environment
A sharp editorial eye and genuine comfort with style guides, legal language, and disclosure copy
Familiarity with regulatory and compliance review processes in a financial services or similarly regulated context — or the demonstrated ability to quickly learn and rigorously apply a compliance framework
Experience performing digital QA, including link testing, CTA verification, and cross-device/browser review
Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple assets in various stages of review simultaneously
A collaborative, low-ego approach — this role is a critical quality gate, and the best person for it understands that getting it right matters more than being right

Nice To Haves

Experience with project management or creative workflow tools (Workfront or similar)
Familiarity with HTML basics or the ability to read source code to verify tracking parameters
Prior experience working within a financial services in-house studio or marketing team
Knowledge of FINRA and FDIC regulatory frameworks

Responsibilities

Review and edit all studio-produced assets for grammar, spelling, punctuation, style consistency, and brand voice across print, digital, paid media, social, and earned media formats
Apply and uphold brand style guidelines and editorial standards across all collateral
Partner with designers, copywriters, and project managers to flag issues early and turn edits around within Creative Studio timelines
Maintain and evolve internal proofreading checklists and style references as brand standards develop
Work against established regulatory checklists to ensure all marketing collateral meets compliance requirements prior to submission
Identify and flag discrepancies — missing disclosures, incorrect legal language, unapproved claims — and partner with the Creative Studio team to resolve them
Track revisions through the compliance review process and ensure final approved versions are reflected accurately in production files
Stay current on relevant regulatory guidelines as they evolve within the financial services space
Conduct pre-launch quality assurance on digital assets including emails, landing pages, digital ads, and web content
Test all links, CTAs, buttons, and interactive elements to confirm functionality, correct routing, and consistent behavior across devices and browsers
Verify URL query strings, tracking tags, and destination URLs against campaign briefs
Document and communicate QA findings clearly so issues can be resolved before go-live
