We’re looking for a part-time, remote Editorial Assistant to join our award-winning editorial team at Lexipol, which operates the most visited news and information websites for U.S. first responders. Our sites – which collectively average more than 12 million page views each month – deliver critical news, commentary, video and training content to police, fire, EMS, and corrections.
You must be a verifiable news junkie, the sort of person who loves being first to post killer news – whenever it occurs – and watching real-time page views soar. You know your Tweets from your Grams, and love scouring the web for news our readers will respond to, learn from and share with their networks. You write mobile-friendly headlines, great Facebook post teases and accurate copy. You get a rush seeing your news rewrites pull in traffic, beat competitors and inform the audience.
This role is a unique opportunity to join a strong, supportive, creative, award-winning editorial team that is on the forefront of B2B digital media.
