As a Content Specialist, you will ensure that our subscribers receive a daily feed of the best content available from the asset management industry. You will curate content from financial asset management companies – including their thought leadership, market commentary, reports, and other materials – and provide pithy and persuasive short-form copy for the web that entices our subscribers to read it.

The role reports to the Head of Financial Content in the Incisive Works team and offers a career in content marketing within the investment industry.
