Description
Are you interested in joining a small but growing international media & events company which is focused on startups and innovation?
Menlo Media is the company behind EU-Startups.com (a leading news publication focusing on startups in Europe) and organizer of the annual EU-Startups Summit. Founded in 2010, EU-Startups.com today reaches over 600K page views per month.
To further grow our content efforts and reach, we’re currently looking for a proactive, smart and hard-working Head of Content who takes care of our daily editorial output.
Your main tasks would be:
- To lead our content creation efforts for EU-Startups.com
- Daily reporting about the most exciting startup news from across Europe
- Creation of evergreen content that is interesting for our audience
- Managing our Europe-wide network of contributors
- Other content & communications related tasks (social media, etc.)
Since we're a small team, we’re rather looking for a generalist instead of a specialist. Eventually, this entry role could lead you to become our future Editorial Director – depending on your strengths, career plans and dreams.
Preferably you have the following skills/experience:
- You’re capable of and interested in creating kick-ass content - every day!
- You’re a native English speaker, or you’ll at least have close to native speaker English skills. Spanish, German, or French would be a plus
- You have some previous editorial, PR, and/or communications experience
- You’re familiar with the common startup & tech terminology, and are familiar with the key player of the European startup ecosystem
- You have basic or advanced knowledge regarding WordPress, SEO, MS office, Google docs,…
- You’re excited about startups, you're pro-European, and interested in innovation and technology!
Important: Applicants should (already) be based in Barcelona, since 4 out of 5 working days you'd be working with us in our office in Barcelona.
Please be aware that we’re looking for a team member interested in joining us long-term, not just for 1-2 years. Let's grow together and build something great! 🙂
Possible starting dates: May 8, 15, 22 or 29
Please also make sure to mention your desired salary in your application. Thank you!
