About New Narrative

New Narrative’s services span every stage of the process needed to execute world-class thought leadership campaigns that advance commercial goals, drive meaningful conversations and stake out new intellectual territory.

About the role

We are looking for experienced writers, creators and communicators who can deliver expertly crafted content across a variety of media for a broad range of blue-chip clients.

As a core member of a dynamic and fast-growing editorial team you will be responsible for researching and producing compelling, intellectually rigorous concepts and content for some of the world’s leading enterprises. From in-depth reports to podcasts, infographics and social media copy, we craft and execute end to end campaigns for companies at the forefront of finance, technology, healthcare and other fields.

The appeal of the job lies in its constant variety: no two client briefs are alike. At various times, you may be researching a white paper on the impacts of artificial intelligence; working with a production team to capture the video highlights from a green finance event in Singapore; or advising an asset manager on the market-moving events to factor into a publishing calendar.

This is the ideal role for an ambitious self-starter keen to deploy their creative and editorial skills in the exciting space emerging between media and marketing.

The successful candidate should have:

  • At least 3-5 years’ experience in a journalism, content-focused marketing or communications role
  • Experience creating content for the financial and professional services sectors, and for a senior executive audience
  • Experience producing content across a range of formats, at times under pressure, to tight deadlines while maintaining a cool head
  • Impeccable English language skills
  • Strong research skills and a commitment to quality control
  • The willingness to travel and work flexible hours when required

Strong pluses for this role include:

  • Knowledge of the digital and social media aspects of publishing
  • Video production or design skills
  • Experience in project management and/or client-facing roles
  • Second language skills
  • The right to work in Singapore

WHAT WE OFFER

  • A high base salary, commensurate with experience, along with benefits such as a bonus scheme, company medical plan and paid holidays
  • Unmatched opportunities for advancement, to develop new skills and to shape the future direction of a young business at the forefront of a rapidly expanding regional media and content marketing industry
  • The opportunity to exercise and showcase your creativity on high-visibility projects for industry-leading clients
  • The chance to be part of a diverse and global team of professionals with decades of combined experience in journalism, digital media and publishing
  • A flexible, progressive environment. While the hours don’t always fit easily into a 9-to-5 schedule, we actively pursue a policy of work-life balance for all staff
  • New Narrative is an equal opportunities employer.
