Randstad
Are you a natural storyteller with a "strong pen" and a hunger for the financial markets? Randstad is supporting a financial firm who is looking for a Junior Investment Writer to help bring complex investment stories to life. This isn't just a copy-editing role-it's an opportunity to act as a "ghostwriter" for industry experts. You will partner directly with Investment Directors to unbox market trends, craft compelling white papers, and manage the full lifecycle of digital content. Whether you are blogging about the economy, active on FinTwit, or have produced institutional-caliber research during your education, we want to see your voice!
