Investing Writer, US Market (Full-time, Remote)

**Role context** ---------------- Simply Wall St has undergone a significant evolution, moving from a research platform to a Portfolio Command Center. This shift represents a fundamental change in our product and brand, designed to give stock investors the ultimate control room for managing their wealth. Our Editorial team is how we bring that world to life beyond the product. We do not aim to compete with mainstream financial mastheads on dry “*here’s what happened*” reporting. Our ambition is to excel on judgment, original framing, and thought leadership that helps everyday investors to understand what it *actually* **means**. We are hiring a writer in a US\-aligned time zone to give our coverage a more direct US voice and to sharpen our response time on key US events, earnings, and reader questions. We are open to candidates located in United States, Canada or Latin America. The throughline for this role is timely depth. You have the breadth to write credibly across industries and markets, the speed to be early on a story, and the research discipline to make a reader feel genuinely informed rather than just updated. Done well, your work helps investors get to the front of where opportunities are forming, not the back of where the news already broke. Layered on top is a commercial instinct. Most of what we publish has a job to do, and you write copy that moves readers to act without losing their trust. This is a fully remote, full\-time role, engaged as an independent contractor, based in the United States, Canada, or Latin America (US\-aligned time zones). You will report to the Senior Investment Editor. **What you'll do** ------------------ **Find and frame the story** * Gather information on newsworthy US and global topics for coverage across the Editorial team. * Craft original, often contrarian ideas that distinguish Simply Wall St from run\-of\-the\-mill financial news mastheads. **Deliver with speed on US markets** * Respond quickly to US market events, earnings, and time\-sensitive matters during US hours, turning them into researched, genuinely useful coverage rather than a rushed reaction. * Act as our on\-hours US voice, so we are early and credible on the stories that matter to a US audience. **Write across formats** * Write articles, for either Editorial or B2B, covering investing insights, company and economic news, financial products, and more. * Contribute across multiple formats, including The Foxhole, Market Insights, bespoke articles, and emails. * Publish, on average, one Market Insights article every three weeks, alongside a steady flow of other timely pieces. * Weave in Simply Wall St community assets, such as Narratives and Company Reports, that add insight for the reader and link naturally back to the platform. **Optimize for reach without losing voice** * Optimize content using best SEO and GEO practices to maximize impressions, clicks, click\-through rate, and registrations, while maintaining a human
