Forbes Media seeks an associate content producer to support the Opinions channel of Forbes.com.

Producers are the lynchpin of the Forbes newsroom.

Responsibilities include:

    • Work on front lines of channel and section pages. Read and edit (as appropriate) content on the channel and site and fix issues when discovered.
    • Train and support staff writers and outside contributors on how to use and optimize Forbes publishing tools.
    • Facilitate communication between Forbes editors and contributors. Work closely with staff reporters and writers.
    • Work with audience development to monitor traffic trends and help staffers and contributors to capitalize on it.
    • Update channel and section pages to keep them fresh and interesting. Update home page and special sections when required.
    • Find and recruit contributors at the direction of editors.
    • Monitor news and alert staff and contributors to aid their coverage ability.
    • Create photo galleries for stories and special reports/landers.
    • Build topic packages/landers and special sections on the fly to best showcase and exploit our work for the web site.
