As Editor, would you like to work on a high performing, international title where your content and work will be viewed by a global audience? This business offers hybrid working and the chance to travel internationally, as well as offices set in idyllic, beautiful surroundings and a highly collaborative environment.

Our client, a leading, innovative and forward-thinking media company, is looking for an Editor to join their busy editorial/content department in both a hands-on and strategic role working on a successful, established and growing international B2B brand. As Editor, you will be responsible for developing and delivering the content strategy for the brand to drive new subscribers and growth and increase engagement and retention with new readers; as well as commissioning and curating quality content across multiple channels (print, digital, and events).

As a Brand Ambassador, you will be the external face of the brand when networking at events and building strategic industry relationships. Part of your Editor role will also see you responsible for line managing an Editorial Assistant, supporting their growth and development.

As Editor for this exciting global brand, you will get the opportunity to:

1. Commission and deliver content across all channels for the brand, including website, email, print, video, podcast, webinars, and events.
2. Devise content and editorial strategy (taking part in brand meetings), curating and managing a calendar of live brand activities and the annual content calendar across print, digital, and live content products.
3. Utilise your ability to build strong relationships to work effectively with internal sales, events, and marketing teams.
4. Act as a brand ambassador developing relationships externally with key people through embedding yourself within the industry, as well as attending events.
5. Forward plan each year's print issues considering market trends.
6. Identify future markets and new products with editorial potential.

I am very interested in speaking with an experienced Editor, Science Writer, or Managing Editor who has experience delivering and managing a content strategy across multiple print and digital channels within a B2B publishing environment, with a track record of content being a vehicle to drive new subscribers and revenue growth, as well as improved reader engagement. Experience delivering content within the scientific/pharmaceutical/life sciences sector is essential as well.
