CEO Magazine publishes Global MBA, EMBA, and Green MBA rankings, covering more than 400 programmes across 24 countries. We are looking for a Contributing Writer to join our editorial team on a freelance basis, covering business education, rankings, and the MBA market.
This is a bylined role on a ranked publication with an engaged audience of prospective students, school administrators, and business education professionals worldwide.
Responsibilities
Produce two web articles per week (400–500 words each) on MBA admissions, rankings, curriculum trends, accreditation, ROI, and business education strategy. Quarterly magazine features (1,000 words) and interview-based pieces (1,200–1,800 words) are commissioned separately for the right candidate.
Briefs are provided, and first drafts are expected within 48 hours.
What we’re looking for
Demonstrable experience covering business, executive education, or management journalism. Familiarity with the MBA landscape - AACSB, GMAC, MBA rankings - and the ability to write with editorial confidence, not just competence. Strong primary source instincts and a direct, opinionated writing style.
Compensation
Monthly retainer of £500-600 for the regular web brief. Magazine features at £175–200 per piece. Interviews at £300 per piece.
