Role: Business Content Coordinator
Reports To: Sophie Coffman - Associate Director
Location: London
Compensation: £30,000 - £35,000 per annum plus 10% discretionary bonus
Workplace Type: We ask all employees to work a hybrid schedule, with a minimum 2x/week in their local office. We welcome employees to utilize office space more than that where possible.
The position of Business Content Coordinator plays a critical role in developing programmed and written content in support of the World 50 Group’s corporate gatherings team. Reporting to senior product leaders, this position is responsible for researching and writing in-house material on topics for event agendas, vetting and securing speakers, assisting in the production of support collateral, maintaining records related to the execution of agendas, and attending and supporting the execution of live gatherings.
Ideal candidates can distill complex content briefs into progressive and enticing live conversations for a business audience. You will be responsible for liaising with producers, client managers, member analytics teams, and external partners to create forward-looking reports and recommendations to keep members ahead of industry trends that will impact their businesses. If you’re looking for a role that requires using well-developed muscles like sound judgment, trend-spotting, having influence, and interacting with other brilliant minds - but couldn’t figure out what career would allow you to do that - we’re looking for you.
We hire for insatiable curiosity. We’re looking for someone used to deeply researching various topics to find a compelling narrative in a sea of unstructured information. Global and local, analog and technology, business and human interest, and economic and scientific stories all pique your interest. You’re the kind of person who reads The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, South China Morning Post and Financial Times in equal measure. You are more interested in proximity to some of the most interesting content in the world than in the byline (which you will not receive).
The ideal individual will have strong business curiosity (along with growing business acumen), and a demonstrated record of learning and conveying a variety of topics, the ability to infuse creativity and practice a highly organized workflow to assist in the design and execution of corporate meetings.
