Pensions & Investments seeks a content editor

Pensions & Investments is looking for a content editor who would work as a member of the editorial leadership team to edit copy and ensure completeness of coverage for the biweekly print and daily web versions of P&I.

This editor will work closely with the copy desk and will often be the last line of defense on ensuring stories are accurate and fit to our style before they are published. This position is among the final set of eyes while posting stories and adding photos to our website and sending out our various newsletters, including our flagship P&I Daily that goes out every afternoon. It also requires editing longer-form stories for print and completing pages in Adobe InCopy — writing headlines/captions/subheads, making stories fit, etc.

We are looking for a candidate who can help P&I’s art director with page layouts in Adobe InDesign.

The ideal candidate will have and be comfortable dealing with coverage that requires a degree of financial and investing literacy. Pensions & Investments covers the world of institutional investing with a focus on retirement plans, regulation, and the managers and consultants that asset owners work with.

Experience:

  • At least three years of editing experience with a track record of meeting deadlines and some experience with financial journalism.

Preferences:

  • Knowledge of AP style
  • HTML knowledge
  • Data visualization skills
