Über diesen Job

We’re looking for a Swiss French Market Editor to own and elevate all written content for our French-speaking Switzerland market.

This isn’t a translation role, but rather an editor role. We’re looking for someone to help us ensure that everything we publish, from landing pages to emails feels written for your market, resonates locally, and supports sustainable international growth. You’ll work closely with Brand, CRM, Performance Marketing, Ecommerce, and Product Marketing, acting as the local voice and market expert who helps us understand what truly resonates and what doesn’t.

The role reports into the Senior Brand Manager and operates with a high degree of autonomy. If you’re a strong proofreader in the D2C marketing space, and understand how language, culture, and customer journeys impact performance, and you’re motivated to help a fast-growing subscription brand scale successfully across European markets, then we’d love to talk with you.

  • Improve conversion-focused content on landing pages and key funnels
  • Support SEO localization: search intent, phrasing, and keyword nuance
  • Collaborate with CRM to optimize email and lifecycle messaging for engagement

Enable scalable expansion

  • Help build repeatable localization workflows
  • Document learnings and market insights for future rollouts
  • Collaborate with central content team to improve AI + human localization processes

  • Able to balance speed and quality in a fast-moving environment

Experienced and independent

  • 4+ years in editorial, localisation, copywriting, or content roles
  • Ideally in DTC, food, wellness, subscription, ecommerce, or consumer tech
  • Comfortable making editorial decisions independently

Working style
