The Motley Fool is on the lookout for an uber-talented editor to join our team.
This is a roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-dirty editing job for our suite of behind-the-paywall investing websites, from rewriting entire articles down to making sure the punctuation is perfect.
You’ll be on the lookout for problems of clarity, logic, grammar, style, and accuracy, helping to ensure that we’re creating compelling, error-free, and Foolish investment advice for our paying members.
You’ll be working with a team of financial experts, writers, analysts, fact-checkers, and kick-butt fellow editors to produce investing and personal finance information that educates, amuses, and enriches the members of our investment services.
As editor, you’ll play a lead role in getting our investment advice in perfect condition for publication, whether that entails translating from finance into Foolish or simply polishing the finer points.
But why stop there? We also want you to come up with all sorts of ways we could improve our investment services and the company — you’ll have that kind of power! To do all those things, you’ll need to be technologically savvy, interested in business, and scary smart. It helps if you’re interested in investing because you’ll be focusing on the topic for roughly half of your waking life.
This position calls for a lot of juggling, so we need someone who is intelligent, adaptable, patient, meticulous, reliable, and cool under deadline pressure. Therefore, we really need someone with at least a couple years’ experience working for a daily, weekly, or monthly publication.
