If you are knowledgeable about fintech, cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, and the rapidly evolving world of decentralized finance (DeFi); have a passion for breaking news and delivering engaging stories that capture the attention of readers - you are most certainly in the right place.

As our Chief News Editor, you'll be covering breaking news, market trends, and emerging technologies, while working closely with our editorial team to ensure all content is accurate, timely, and meets editorial standards. You will be responsible for creating and publishing original news content related to business, fintech and crypto on our biggest and best brands.

We especially are looking for someone who can demonstrate a depth of experience in both building and managing news teams. You will have an eye for detail but also an ability to strategize and implement solutions as required as you monitor the sites’ key performance indicators.

Integrating multimedia and social channels into our news operations is an important part of the job, as well as hiring new talent and training existing staff, all to be achieved while aligning with the commercial imperatives of the company. Videos, podcasts and events are also areas the company is keen to develop further, so expertise in these areas is helpful but not essential.

- Strategy and implementation of editorial policies and plans
- Oversight of news/editorial teams and news content production
- Management of staff, recruitment, budgets

- Researching and producing original news stories related to the fintech/crypto industries, delivered in a timely manner, in line with content/editorial calendars and industry events
- Conducting interviews with industry experts and key players in the crypto space
- Monitoring, analyzing, and reporting of market trends, news developments, and regulatory changes related to the fintech/crypto industries
- Collaborating with other team members, including editors, writers and designers to produce engaging and informative content
- Acquisition of quality editorial talent to meet the needs of an expanding news operation as part of the wider Finixio media network.
- Manage and build out existing teams, including putting in place training programmes for continual professional development.
- Monitor key performance indicators such as traffic, SEO rankings, social media engagement and make improvements as required.

**To be considered for this role, you should have**:

- Experience in an editorial leadership capacity, ideally news/editor in chief
- Strong knowledge of the fintech / crypto industries, including areas ranging from VC investments, business technology and industry regulations to neobanks, industry regulations, artificial intelligence and other emerging trends
- Excellent writing and research skills, with a keen eye for accuracy and detail
- Maintenance of high standards is paramount
- Ability to meet tight deadlines (organizing team to do the same)
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a remote team environment
- Experience of managing a busy news desk and building editorial teams in fast-paced settings
- Familiarity with SEO best practices and the ability to optimize content for search engines

**"What’s in it for me" we hear you ask?**
- A brilliant opportunity to grow your career & work with a fun, fast-paced & growing company, prepared to let you shine
- An entrepreneurial environment where you learn more every day (we more than welcome and support people with their own projects)
- Build an organisation right from the "beginning"
- Personal responsibility with a ton of autonomy
- Truly remote working (Work anywhere in the world)
- 33/30 free paid days
- Market leading remuneration and bonuses + revenue/profit shares available
- Professional development and ongoing learning
- An international team with over 40 nationalities
