Jobbeschreibung

WHO WE ARE

The PR industry hasn't really changed in fifty years. Relationships, lunches, luck, and a clip report at the end of the month.

Interdependence is rebuilding it from the ground up. Interviewed, our proprietary platform, analyzes 300,000+ stories every day across a network of 250,000 journalists. We turn earned media into something measurable, repeatable, and worth paying for - and apply the same data and discipline across paid, social, content, and brand. Integrated marketing run by one team, on one system, accountable to one result.

Forbes named us one of America's Best PR Agencies. Our 100+ person team works with brands, CMOs, founders, and entrepreneurs across consumer, healthcare, tech, B2B, travel and entertainment.

We move fast. The best argument wins. We hire for sharp thinking, real craft, and ownership from day one. If you want comfortable, this isn't the place. If you want to win, build with us.

THE ROLE

We are looking for a sharp, experienced Content Editor to help shape content used across SEO, Generative Engine Optimization, PR, content marketing, reputation management and brand campaigns. A large part of this role involves taking AI-generated content and making it genuinely publication-ready.That means much more than proofreading.

You will be expected to recognize weak writing, repetitive ideas, questionable claims, poor sourcing and content that simply does not accomplish what it is supposed to do. Sometimes that will mean making a few edits. Other times it will mean restructuring a section or rewriting it completely.

The ideal candidate is an excellent editor, a strong researcher and someone who knows when not to trust the first answer AI provides.
