Amazon is seeking a creative Senior Editor and writer to ideate, assign, edit, and produce content for AboutAmazon.com. This person will be expected to not only edit content, but also research and write for the site. There will also be travel opportunities throughout the year to cover live Amazon events and tour and capture content at our many unique facilities. The role sits on the Owned Content & Channels team within Amazon’s Global Communications and Community Impact org.
As we seek to turn About Amazon into the first and most trusted source of information about Amazon, we are looking for an editor who can create compelling, data-driven stories about the company for an external digital audience.
The candidate will bring fresh, innovative content ideas and solutions as well as executional excellence and experience building content strategies for our website, About Amazon. The candidate should have a background in digital media or journalism, a strong knowledge of SEO, and be able to optimize and craft stories for search and digital audiences. They would be responsible for creating engaging, informative, and highly visual feature stories than span Amazon’s businesses—from tours of our fulfillment centers and robotics facilities to deep dives on our innovations in AI. They would also partner closely with PR counterparts and other stakeholders to understand the unique objectives, audiences, and messages for each piece of content and use those inputs to develop content strategies and expand the reach of these stories. A strong understanding of data is also critical to creating successful content for our site.
Although this would be an individual contributor role, this person would be expected to manage and edit the work of freelance writers. The successful candidate will have experience managing a team of writers and/or freelancers; a proven track record of developing and delivering compelling stories and campaigns with measurable results; and a strong understanding of SEO and the current digital content landscape.
This is your job if you think big and long term, obsess over serving digital audiences, and can invent and simplify. We want someone who embraces innovation and experimentation, and brings executional excellence to our strategy. You should feel comfortable with change and be willing to stand by your decisions, even if it means disagreeing with partners on occasion. You should also feel comfortable diving deep and rolling up your sleeves to get projects done.
