The Fly Over requires an Editor who will source, vet, and write informative content for a right-of-center newsletter. The Editor will also assist with management, product development, and marketing.

The newsletter is currently in the pre-launch phase. The ideal Editor will work closely with the CEO to execute all stated goals, provide analysis and ideas for improvement, and grow into a larger role as the business develops. Copywriting will be the most time-consuming activity in the beginning, but the Editor’s executive function should increase with business growth.

Pre-Launch Product Development

The Editor will work together with leadership to launch the initial product. This will include content strategy, source selection, writing samples, ect.

Story Selection

The Editor will help choose stories to write about and sources to reference. These decisions will be guided by the overall content strategy and based on engagement data acquired from various sources. The goal will be to locate the stories within defined content parameters that are generating the most public interest.

Copywriting and Management

The Editor will write or edit all copy. At launch, the Editor will write all headlines and copy; in the future, more writers may be involved and will be managed and edited by the Editor.

The Editor will work together with the CEO to develop and maintain a writing voice that matches the larger content strategy. This will involve final edits and revisions aimed at creating a consistent product.

Ongoing Product Development

The Editor will participate in the iterative process of improving the product. This will be an ongoing cycle of brainstorming new ideas, testing, measuring results, and making changes accordingly.

These developments may involve the newsletter’s content and layout (i.e., story selection strategy, a/b testing in-article elements like graphics, word counts in paragraphs, etc.), paid subscriber acquisition campaigns, monetization strategy, etc.

Conclusion

The Editor will be responsible for creating content with punctuality and quality, and they will also play a large role in the long-term development of the business. He or she will report to the CEO and communicate regularly to ensure all goals are achieved.
