Job Description:
What is Workweek?Workweek is a media company on a mission to
entertain, educate, and connect the business community through
unique personalities, unparalleled expertise, and innovative
operations.Simply put, we want to make work fun.But Workweek is a
new kind of media company - one where content creators, not
executives or advertisers, play the most significant role. -We
partner with the very best creator-operators across the world who
have strong passion, deep expertise, and engaged audiences to make
a genuine, far-reaching impact in their industries. People like , ,
, and more.Why join us?We've built a unique business model and a
powerhouse operational team to help creators like you become the
voice of authority in your industry. -Workweek provides you with
the expert strategists, marketers, and brand partners you need to
build a sustainable, profitable media brand - as well as the ,
loyal supporters, and thought partners you need to stay inspired,
curious, and creative.What makes an Creator-Operator:
- Have you operated in the finance industry and developed unique
beliefs on improving your industry?
- Do you create content via social media, newsletter or podcast?
If not, give it a try and send us your practice piece. We'll give
you feedback. -
- Do you have ambitions to be the go-to person in your industry?
- P.S. Dream big. Even if you've never thought of yourself as
this person, but a tiny part of you wishes this was true, then
you're a fit!The truth: some of the best creators we work with
never created content before. They were experienced operators with
unique perspectives willing to push themselves to get their
thoughts in the world. -What about my full-time job?Every person we
work with has a unique relationship to Workweek. Some folks keep
their day job while they create content part-time, others go
full-time and dive all in - and some even join Workweek as an
operator while creating content. -Our belief: nothing is off the
table when you're trying to attract the best. -The AnalogyTony
Romo, the NFL quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, retired and
recently became an analyst for CBS - and he became a superstar
analyst almost immediately.Why? Because his experience on the field
made his commentary unique and valuable. He not only attracted
football fanatics but a wider audience looking to learn more about
the inner workings of the game. Tony Romo will never be in the NFL
Hall of Fame, but he sure might win an Emmy one day.This is what we
see you doing but in the finance industry. -The Case StudyThere are
numerous case studies that we could share like , , , and the other
