White-Hot Health & Beauty Site - Seattle, WA
Full Time / Direct Hire

One of the fastest growing brands in beauty is on the hunt for an Managing Editor who can come up with ideas that thrill, delight and inspire — taking the audience where they didn’t even know they wanted to go. Want to own the roadmap for a hot new property and have the resources to see your ideas come to life? Like the Pacific Northwest? Read on.

Nitty Gritty

This very exciting company is moving a whole industry forward and now they need a mastermind to elevate their digital network by driving creative thinking and creating amazing new features and programming in the beauty field. You’ll get your work in front of millions people every month, and you’ll have the resources you need to grow something really remarkable.

While a lot of players think they’ll win by delivering vanilla content on oatmeal sites, this brand is looking for true quality. As a key mover and shaker, you’ll explore all the options, working as the central player in a network of design, editorial, tech, ad sales, marketing and more. Your main job: come up with great new ideas and collaborate across the team to turn your ideas into reality.

Hired Gun Profile

You know what the audience wants in the beauty field, and it’s not what’s currently out there. You have a strong point of view and are looking for just the right home to put your ideas to work. You also have a big dose of personal empowerment in your blood and are eager to manage a team where collaboration is part of a winning equation.

You’re a skilled manager who is both strategic and detail-oriented, with proven editorial experience in a consumer-based, digital media company. A top candidate will aspire to expand the brand with big ideas that she/he can make happen. Someone who will lead, inspire confidence, teach, and solve tough problems. Someone who can think fast, start fast, fail fast and try again even faster. Someone who can run at this opportunity with full gusto.

Maybe you’ve worked at a major beauty property before, or are bringing your digital skills from a content marketing agency. In any case, you have a distinct point of view on how to achieve high-value engagement that runs across content, platforms and throughout social media. Most important: you know all about creating kickass content, from the right articles to the perfect apps, that keep people coming back for more.

Inside Skinny

This gig comes with a relocation budget, equity and a sweet bonus — but to win the role, you’ll need a digital streak a mile-wide and the ability to talk the talk with design, tech, edit and the business side. Beauty editors get top-billing here as well. Come in with great ideas and a portfolio you’ve built that shows you’ve got game.

Net Net

The growth curve for this company looks like a hockey stick and you’ll be a star player. You’re going to own engagement here, so be prepared to live in the metrics. The goals are ambitious, but we know you can do it.
