We're looking for a sharp and organised Deputy Editor to join our New Model Adviser team. As a key partner to our Editor, you will play a vital role in shaping our coverage of the UK financial advice market - from pensions and investments, to how businesses hire staff and the rules they must follow.
We are focused on high-quality, exclusive coverage that goes beyond press releases, and you'll be at the heart of our newsroom, helping a talented team of reporters turn raw ideas into must-read stories.
This is a role that requires a keen news eye and the ability to build influential relationships. It’s an exciting opportunity to drive the editorial direction of a market-leading title while developing your own high-impact features and data-led investigations.

* Building strong relationships with our reporters to help them shape their ideas, refine their angles and push their articles further.
* Developing your own original stories and features by building relationships with senior industry figures and extracting insights from our data.
* Organising key elements of our news and features coverage, including setting clear deadlines, word counts, and editorial direction for contributors.
* Acting as a key face of NMA by maintaining and building relationships with senior leaders across the financial advice space.
What we're looking for
* Editorial Experience: Demonstrable experience in a similar role at a trade or national (full-time or freelance) at a senior level.
* Sharp Editing Skills: A meticulous eye for detail and the ability to elevate copy, ensuring it resonates with a professional audience.
* Highly Organised: A natural coordinator who can manage deadlines and editorial schedules.
* Relationship Builder: Confident and professional, you are comfortable engaging with senior industry figures and collaborating across internal teams.
