Reporting to the Director, you’ll collaborate with the entire team, helping projects flow smoothly from concept to completion.

• Update client website content (using Word Press) and build and develop high-impact emails (using Constant Contact)
• Conduct thorough editing and proofreading of deliverables, with careful attention to detail and overall quality
• Review design layouts for formatting, visual appeal, and accuracy
• Coordinate with our print production coordinator, ensuring every project runs smoothly, on time, and is error-free
• Ensure all materials are editorially and technically peer reviewed before being sent to clients
• Participate in the full project management cycle, including creating initial fee estimates for projects, building and managing project plans (using Asana), and ensuring quality and timely delivery of tasks from all contributing parties (writers, reviewers, designers, translators, etc.)
• Participate in the development of materials for employee/plan member research initiatives (e.g., surveys, executive interviews, focus groups)

• 3 to 5 years of progressive experience in a communication role
• College or university degree in Communication, English, or Journalism (or relevant experience)
• Excellent writing skills (and by “excellent” we mean “outstanding”)
• Strong editing and proofing skills
• Proficiency with the entire Microsoft Office suite including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel (we don’t mean Google Docs)
• Experience tailoring writing styles and content to match the needs of specific target audiences and comply with brand-defined voices
• Willingness to continually learn about pensions, benefits, and other human resources programs, and stay current with industry trends/developments
• Self-starter who enjoys taking initiative, owning tasks, and seeing them through to completion
• Ability to meet deadlines and adjust priorities quickly, while keeping everyone in the know
