Job description

At Consultivo and Slate of Swan, we sit at the intersection of rigorous business logic and creative storytelling. We help global organisations navigate complex landscapes - from ESG and sustainability to business excellence.

We are not looking for content mill writers who chase clicks. We are looking for an editorial professional to own our brand voice - the bridge between our subject matter experts and the global business audience.

Write with Authority

Your work represents a consulting firm trusted by global enterprises. Every sentence must be precise, credible, and intentional.

Research, Then Write

Deep understanding of a topic comes before a single sentence. You will immerse yourself in unfamiliar industries and emerge with a clear perspective.

Global Reach

Your content reaches C-suite executives and international stakeholders across 19 countries. The stakes are real.

Collaborative by Design

You will sit with consultants, designers, and strategists. The verbal and visual must always align. That is your responsibility.

What You'll Do

Four Core Responsibilities

These are not bullet points. They are the pillars of this role.

• 01

  Own the Editorial Standard

  Proofread, edit, and refine high-stakes reports, white papers, and website content. If it goes out with the Consultivo or Slate of Swan brand on it, it must be flawless. You are the final line of defence before anything reaches a client or audience.

• 02

  Translate Complexity

  Sit with our consultants. Extract technical insights. Then craft them into narratives that C-suite executives and international stakeholders actually want to read. The ability to simplify without dumbing down is your most valued skill.

• 03

  Manage Content Cycles

  Work across digital platforms, managing the full lifecycle of content — from initial research and briefing through to final publication. You will own timelines, flag bottlenecks, and keep quality consistent throughout.

• 04

  Collaborate Across Brands

  You will work directly with our design and consulting teams across Consultivo and Slate of Swan. Your job is to ensure the visual and the verbal are perfectly aligned in every piece of communication.

Who You Are

Four Traits We Cannot Train

Skills can be built. These characteristics must already be yours.

Trait 01

Editorial Perfectionist

You have an obsessive eye for detail. You treat grammar, tone, and logical flow as the bedrock of your work - not an afterthought. You will catch what others miss, and you will not let it go.

Trait 02

Intellectually Robust

You don't just write - you research. You have the stamina to deep-dive into industries you may not know yet and emerge with a coherent, well-argued perspective. Ambiguity energises rather than stalls you.

Trait 03

Proactive & Commute-Fit

You value the energy of an office. You are based within a 60-minute commute of our Dakshineswar office and are genuinely excited to be in-person to brainstorm, collaborate, and build.

Trait 04

Professional Storyteller

You bring 1.5-4 years of editorial experience - ideally from print media or corporate communications. You have a proven track record of stability, consistency, and commitment to the craft.

Why You'll Love It Here

What Working Here Actually Means

Not perks from a template. These are the genuine realities of this environment.

• Brain Fuel, On Us

  Great editing requires energy. Our in-office team enjoys two company-sponsored lunches a week, plus evening snacks to keep the 4 PM writer's block at bay.

• Adults Only — No Babysitting

  We operate on a self-supervised work culture. We don't micromanage. We hire capable people and trust them with their workspace, their deadlines, and their outcomes.

• The Matrix — The Good Kind

  Forget rigid vertical silos. Our matrix structure means you collaborate across teams and brands. Your insights reach the right ears without climbing a mountain of red tape.

• The Consulting Edge

  You are not writing generic content. You are creating high-impact work that influences global business strategy. At Consultivo, your work represents professional authority.

• Premium Pay for Premium Work

  We offer a highly competitive compensation package at the top end of the Kolkata market for editorial roles. We are not looking for the cheapest option. We pay for the best.

• Skin in the Game

  We believe in meritocracy. Your package includes a performance-linked variable component (10–15%) based on the depth of your research and the impact of your content. Excellence pays.

This Is Not for Everyone

If you are "just looking for a job", this isn't it. We are building a team of thinkers. This role suits someone who finds intellectual rigour energising - not draining - and who wants their editorial work to carry genuine weight in the world. If you need structure handed to you, or if content is just a stepping stone, please consider other opportunities.
