Investopedia.com, the largest online source of financial education and information, is seeking key hires to support its continuing growth in investing education and skills training.

The site is seeking a Director of Trading and Investing and an Editor of Trading and Investing to help expand its online video courses for the Investopedia Academy and its content library of over 200,000 articles, videos and tutorials around Investing, Trading and Markets.

“Millions of users come to our site every day to educate themselves about investing and trading, and we want to make sure we are building and delivering the best content and learning experiences to help them achieve their goals,” said Caleb Silver, editor in chief  and senior vice president of content.

“We launched the Investopedia Academy a year ago as a commitment to this mission, and we are delighted by its success to date. These new hires will help us continue to improve our content and how we educate our users across platforms,” added Silver.

Both jobs are based in New York City at the company’s headquarters. Investopedia is a subsidiary of IAC.
