  • Collaborate with other editors, other Creative Studio members, and account teams to develop and deliver exceptional work.

  • Ensure all work is consistent with established brand guidelines and strategy, and maintain up-to-date editorial guidelines.

  • Promote and update editorial policies, standards, and procedures to ensure adherence to them across the agency.

You'll need:
  • Four or more years of professional experience in editing; government, advertising agency, or consultancy experience preferred.

  • Excellent organizational, time-management, and prioritization skills with the ability to collaborate in a fast-paced team environment, juggling multiple competing deadlines

What we offer:
  • Flexible working arrangements, including remote and hybrid options

  • Competitive benefits, including healthcare and retirement plans

  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

  • A collaborative environment with opportunities to connect across teams

  • Opportunities to contribute to social impact and community initiatives
