Position Description

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.

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).
