Job description

Manager, Editor, Government and Public Services (GPS)

Deloitte Insights is Deloitte's global publishing imprint for business research and insights. We publish 400+ articles, reports, and multimedia projects annually with the goal of educating, informing, and inspiring Deloitte clients and prospective clients on the business issues that matter most to their strategic agendas. From leadership and workforce evolution to AI and emerging technologies, to energy resilience and decarbonization, and beyond, Deloitte Insights (DI) publishes data-driven thought leadership for global C-suite and board-level executives and other organizational leaders across industries.

Recruiting for this role ends 8/10/26.

As an editor covering government and public services for Deloitte Insights, you'll work with subject matter specialists, researchers, data science and visualization professionals, designers, video strategists, and production specialists to develop research and insights projects ranging from reports and articles to infographics and videos. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leveraging your own subject matter expertise as an editor, as well as your overall business understanding and content skills when collaborating with Deloitte business leaders, internal and external thought leaders, government and public services research professionals, and publishing and marketing colleagues to strategize, develop, and execute research and insights stories on prioritized topics
  • Ensuring the intellectual rigor and credibility of all published insights by applying a journalist's curiosity and skepticism-asking tough questions about data sources, methodology, and conclusions; maintaining precision in language around claims and statistics; and challenging assumptions before publication, working collaboratively with researchers and other subject matter experts to strengthen the work
  • Evaluating insights projects' novelty in the generative AI era, along with their alignment with both target audiences' informational needs and Deloitte's expertise and business priorities, to help find the sweet spot where Deloitte can offer clients insights of unique value
  • Serving as a storytelling strategist, advising on optimal ways to communicate the given insights-including determining the right content type(s) for the given insights, and leveraging multimedia or multimodal storytelling and communication skills to develop copy to suit the medium (reports, articles, infographics, videos, dashboards, etc.)
  • Adapting to the needs of the given project, and serving as anything from ghostwriter to editor to infographic copywriter to scriptwriter to help tell the story successfully; when editing, having the perspective and agility to know how to calibrate your effort based on the state of the copy and the realities of the project-sometimes digging deep and suggesting developmental edits and sometimes just giving copy a light polish for grammar and style
  • Respectfully and diplomatically helping authors tell their own stories effectively given their messaging objectives, target audiences, and personal voices as writers, while also advising them on how to ensure their insights' novelty, accuracy, clarity, utility, and audience engagement, and adherence to editorial best practices; demonstrating an expert ability to improve someone else's work without leaving your own mark on it overtly
  • Acting as a champion for Deloitte's audiences, with a deep understanding of their content consumption behaviors, and advising authors accordingly
  • Stewarding each project through the full content development process, coordinating with authors, designers, marketing, and other internal teams to ensure that project objectives are accomplished, expectations are clear, and timelines are accurately set and met
  • Editing copy for factual accuracy, grammar, punctuation, readability, flow, and style, and applying SEO and GEO best practices
  • Leveraging generative AI per firm and team policies and standards, as a supplemental tool to increase your efficiency, while still ensuring that all projects are still thoroughly human-designed, -developed, -led, and -vetted
  • Coaching Deloitte content creators on language usage, writing style, storytelling effectiveness, and Deloitte Insights' production processes
