You'll have your hands in everything from the Freshly Minted weekly newsletter and the quarterly Marine Money Magazine to two proprietary industry databases that are genuinely indispensable to the shipping finance world. This is a rare opportunity to combine analytical rigor with real editorial craft, in a role where your work has direct, visible impact on a community that takes the content seriously.

• You approach structured data and reference content with care, catching inconsistencies and maintaining the kind of quality control that keeps a proprietary database trustworthy.
• You're comfortable juggling weekly newsletter production alongside quarterly magazine deadlines and ongoing database maintenance.
• You're familiar with content management systems and digital publishing workflows; basic HTML knowledge is a plus.
