Senior Content Designer

We're looking for an experienced Senior Content Designer to join our growing team at Depop. You'll work across several squads in our Marketplace pillar, helping create a seamless, efficient and trustworthy experience for the Depop community. You'll also support other experience areas as needed. You'll bring content expertise, a user‑focused mindset and a collaborative spirit to deliver impact, delight users and help shape the product that's making fashion circular.

Responsibilities

• Own content end-to-end for your experience area(s) across the Depop apps (iOS & Android) and Depop.com
• Partner closely with designers, researchers, product managers and engineers to ship impactful work you’re proud of
• Use feedback and user testing results to iterate effectively
• Elevate content quality, defining what good looks like with your teams and providing guidance to non‑writers, where necessary
• Work with legal and regulatory teams to make sure content you write is compliant with industry standards and regulations, where necessary
• Contribute to the evolution of content standards at Depop, including writing guidelines and AI best practices

Requirements

• You have a strong portfolio demonstrating your ability to write clear and engaging content for a variety of digital products and platforms
• 5‑8+ years experience as a UX writer / content designer
• Experience writing for a US audience, or localising your content
• You’re able to balance key user needs with business objectives
• You have a strong understanding of UX design principles and how content influences user behaviour and interaction
• You’re able to justify your copy decisions with user research, competitor research or UX best practices
• You have excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively individually and as part of particular squads where necessary
• You have strong organisational skills and thrive in an environment that requires you to manage multiple projects, with several teams, simultaneously
• You’re proficient in Figma and know when AI can and can’t help you produce your best work

Heads up, this role probably isn’t for you if:

• Your experience is mostly in marketing content, advertising, copywriting or journalism – and you have no hands‑on experience of content design or working in UX
