Job Type: Contract
Compensation Range: $28 - 32 per hour
Our client is seeking an Editorial Coordinator to drive workflow alignment and momentum from initial concept to high-visibility global publication. This is your opportunity to build an intentional, high-impact bridge across creative and digital teams while piloting emerging generative technologies.
Responsibilities:
1. Process \& Project Management
- Workflow Ownership: Own and maintain enterprise Wrike tasking and timelines for editorial, creative, social, and publishing workflows.
- Capacity \& Tracking: Simultaneously support the operational pipeline for approximately 15 concurrent projects, ensuring each content output has clear ownership, a realistic timeline, and transparent status tracking.
- Bottleneck Resolution: Proactively identify and resolve handoff issues between departments. You are expected to step out of your workspace, seek out stakeholders in person, and track down answers to keep projects moving.
- Calendar Oversight: Maintain and update the master editorial, creative, photoshoot, and events calendars alongside digital display updates.
2. Editorial, Content \& Initiative Support
- Content Ownership: Directly own the process, drafting, and execution for two small, recurring weekly content assignments.
- Storytelling Support: Contribute drafting and copy support for corporate channels, including storytelling initiatives.
- Research \& Execution: Assist with background research, fact-checking, and development. Provide hands-on project management support for tentpole moments, major corporate events, initiatives, archives upkeep, and tours under editorial guidance.
3. Cross-Functional Coordination
- The Operational Bridge: Serve as the daily point of contact connecting our Editorial, Creative, Social, and Publishing teams (including designers, copywriters, and social media specialists).
- Alignment Meetings: Facilitate status updates, coordinate cross-functional meetings, and handle rigorous operational follow-ups to ensure all teams adhere to established processes.
4. Professional Development \& Emerging Technology Opportunities
- Emerging Tech \& AI Support: Assist with cutting-edge exploratory work related to AI-driven discovery and visibility, including GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and LLM-related research, content tagging, or prompt testing. Document best practices as these platforms evolve.
- Crisis \& Issue Monitoring: Support media and social monitoring (utilizing tools like Sprinklr ) during heightened risk windows or emerging issues, compiling swift summaries for team reporting and awareness.
- Competitive Intelligence: Track and synthesize competitor activity across earned and owned channels, documenting snapshots to help inform the broader Communications and Brand teams.
Qualifications:
- 2-4+ Years of Relevant Experience: Proven track record in project management, traffic management, or editorial coordination within an in-house corporate communications or corporate brand environment.
- Creative Process Comprehension: Must deeply understand the creative and writing lifecycle. You know how to set realistic expectations with stakeholders, protect creative integrity, and properly map out turnaround times.
- Proactive \& Interpersonal: A high-energy "people person" who doesn't rely solely on email. You must be willing to walk over to colleagues, build relationships across departments, and track down answers dynamically.
- System Fluency: Strong proficiency in Wrike (or highly comparable enterprise tools like Asana/Monday) and the Microsoft Office suite.
- Foundational interest or functional experience with AI, LLMs, and GEO trends.
- Experience utilizing Sprinklr or similar enterprise social listening tools.
