Assistant Editor
The Role
As an assistant editor for Trade Press Media Group's commercial cleaning group, you'll shape how a leading B2B audience stays informed about one of the largest facility services industries in the country. As Assistant Editor for our Commercial Cleaning Group, you own a content portfolio spanning flagship print magazines, daily digital, newsletters, social, and virtual events. Your work reaches tens of thousands of facility and cleaning professionals who rely on it to do their jobs better.
This is a strong fit for an editor/writer who is organized under deadline pressure, curious about industries they didn't grow up knowing, and ready to own a beat rather than just fill a queue.
What You'll Own
- The quality and accuracy of all print and digital content across the Commercial Cleaning brands
- A daily content cadence including digital articles, newsletters, videos, and social posting
- Freelance contributor relationships, from assignment through final edit
- Virtual event production, including moderating webcasts and live Q&A
- Industry awards programs and survey-driven engagement initiatives
- Your own story ideas, developed from industry relationships and events you attend
What You'll Do
- Report, write, and edit articles for print and digital, meeting deadlines and SEO goals
- Coordinate magazine layouts with the graphic designer and manage CMS conversion
- Execute interactive online video, infographic, and gamification content
- Source, assign, and manage freelance contributors
- Host and moderate virtual events and webcasts
- Participate in content strategy, brainstorming, and new product discussions
Who This Is For
- A strong reporter and editor who holds themselves to a high standard, one error matters to you
- Someone who manages multiple deadlines without losing the details
- Comfortable owning a content calendar, not just executing tasks on one
- A communicator who asks questions early and articulates ideas clearly
- Curious enough to become a genuine expert in an industry you may know nothing about yet
What You'll Get
- Deep ownership of a content vertical early in your career, not an assist role
- Exposure to print, digital, events, and audience development all at once
- A path toward senior editorial responsibility as the brands grow
- A collaborative team that takes quality seriously without taking itself too seriously
