Your Role

As a News & Syndication Editor at FinanceBuzz, you’ll be responsible for editing high-quality content (written by our team of amazing freelancers) that helps our readers make smart personal finance decisions that better their lives. You'll need to be comfortable with a fast-paced content creation process where you will sometimes be assigning a story, editing, and publishing it within a few hours time.

The ideal candidate is someone chock full of article ideas (an ideation machine!) who can easily come up with dozens of trending, highly-clickable content ideas each week. Also needed: a knack for writing headlines. You'll also work with our Associate Director of Content to ensure all syndicated content is optimized for distribution and monetization.

Success Looks Like

  • Assigning and editing stories (approximately 3-5 per day, depending on length)
  • Ensuring content is accurate and presented in a way that's optimized for clicks and revenue
  • Demonstrating strong editorial judgment and topical expertise across personal finance topics
  • Identifying trends and newsworthy hooks that will increase content distribution on our syndication partner platforms
  • Monitoring analytics to make strategic decisions on what content to create or optimize
  • Working closely with writers to help them deliver their best work through constructive feedback and mentoring
  • Ensuring all content adheres to our style, sourcing, and compliance guidelines
  • Growing and fostering the FinanceBuzz brand as a top destination for personal finance information and education

What You Need To Succeed

  • 3-5 years of experience in a digital editor role
  • Expertise in creating content for syndication platforms like Apple News, MSN, and Yahoo
  • Expertise in personal finance topics
  • An ability to work and make decisions independently
  • A clear understanding of content analytics
  • Experience using a CMS to build online content
  • Experience with Slack, Google Suite, and Asana (or similar)
  • Basic knowledge of HTML a plus
