Editorial Director, Insights / Analytics Storyteller
The Editorial Director, Insights – Analytics Storyteller will be the lead architect behind the words, charts, and stories that define our insights program. This is not traditional editorial work — it’s where strategic storytelling meets advanced analytics.
In this role, you’ll craft compelling narratives that help top brands, retailers, and investors make smarter, faster decisions. Working in close collaboration with analysts, designers, and data scientists, you’ll transform complex findings into clear, persuasive, and actionable insights. The ideal candidate has experience in financial or business editorial — ideally from a business magazine, reporting firm, or analytics publication — and thrives on clarity, accuracy, and strategic impact.
This position is based in the Bentonville, AR area.
Why This Role Matters This is more than writing — it’s translating intelligence into influence. Without clear communication, even the sharpest data can go unnoticed. Your voice will shape how the industry sees itself, understands change, and prepares for the future. You will serve as the connective tissue between raw information and executive action.
Key Responsibilities
Lead all editorial content across reports, dashboards, presentations, and subscriber-facing content.
The core deliverable is always the so what — turning raw analysis into strategic takeaways that answer why it matters and what to do next.
Develop narrative frameworks for analytical deliverables that drive engagement and decision-making.
Write and edit headlines, data callouts, executive summaries, and full-length reports.
Collaborate with analysts and visualization teams to ensure data and commentary tell a cohesive story.
Shape tone, pacing, and structure for clarity, accessibility, and strategic relevance.
Ensure consistency in editorial voice, quality, and logic across all communications.
Help establish editorial standards, style guides, and templates to scale the work efficiently.
Qualifications
7+ years of experience in business journalism, editorial strategy, analytics communication, or related fields.
Demonstrated ability to turn complex findings into accessible, engaging narratives.
Experience writing for executive or investor audiences strongly preferred.
Exceptional editorial judgment and command of tone, clarity, and precision.
Ability to work cross-functionally with analytics, research, and design teams.
High attention to detail and a deep respect for data accuracy.
Preferred Skills
Experience in data-heavy environments such as consulting firms, analytics firms, or business intelligence publishers.
Background in market research, economic reporting, or consumer insights.
