BASE SALARY:
$35,000 to $55,000 per year
YOUR ROLE You'll assist and support the FinanceBuzz staff in the team’s mission to produce high-quality content that helps our readers make smart decisions that better their lives and also performs well in terms of search results and revenue. This role will be focused on supporting our editorial teams that create SEO content.

You must be 100% okay with having ad hoc tasks added to your to-do list and be able to pivot quickly. Tasks could range from optimizing hyperlinks in published content to collecting and inputting information into Google spreadsheets to assisting with compliance projects to cropping and uploading photos.

An open mind around the implementation of AI in your personal workflow and in content creation
EXPERIENCE:
1+ years supporting editorial or content production teams in a fast-paced environment, ideally in digital media or performance marketing

Helping make sure disclosures and compliance requirements are applied to new and existing content
