Position Overview

We are seeking a flexible, intellectually curious, and editorially rigorous Editor in Chief to lead the editorial and publishing operations at our research and analysis firm. This pivotal role will drive the quality, clarity, timeliness, and strategic direction of our insights across all types of publications, such as research reports, graphics, PowerPoint presentations, video and more.

The Editor In Chief Will Own

Macro: The editorial vision and execution at an overall level, including the content calendar of 600+ research publications per year. In addition to working closely with analysts to elevate content, the Editor in Chief will manage the research calendar and production workflow, playing a central role in how and when we engage our clients with compelling insight. Micro: The full content lifecycle of individual publications.

Key Responsibilities

Editorial Strategy & Leadership

Define and uphold editorial standards across all publications, ensuring consistency, clarity, and credibility. Shape and maintain a distinct editorial voice that aligns with our brand, market positioning, and audience expectations. Serve as the final editorial gatekeeper for publications, ensuring analytical rigor, strong narrative structure, and professional polish.

Research Calendar Ownership & Publication Planning

Own and manage the calendar of syndicated research reports—determining what content gets published, when, and with what strategic priority. This includes establishing deadlines for analysts. Coordinate closely with analysts and leadership to ensure content aligns with internal goals, industry and company events, and client needs, as well as analyst capacity. Proactively manage deadlines and deliverables, holding teams accountable for timely, high-quality content development. Ensure a consistent voice in tone, approach and content, particularly with consistency in messaging and point of view.

Production Workflow Management

Oversee the production workflow, including editing, layout, approvals, and publishing. This includes managing two production associates/graphic designers. Manage the flow of a substantial volume of individual items through to publication—this may include PowerPoint decks, blog posts, videos, graphics/infographics, emails and data updates as well as research reports. Establish and enforce efficient processes in editorial and production. Ensure adherence to key deadlines for each publication, using workflow tools such as Jira as well as direct communication with analysts. Oversee a research operations role for implementation of tools.

Quality Standards & Collaboration

Ensure each item of research adheres to our quality standards, rework as necessary, and work with analysts to ensure those standards are met. Partner with analysts to sharpen perspectives, elevate analysis/insights, and clarify structure and tone. Provide hands-on editing and editorial coaching to elevate team writing.

Quality Control & Editorial Review

Oversee all editing phases, including copyediting, and proofreading. Lean on emerging technologies to automate repetitive, recurring tasks such as copyediting as much as possible. Expand our use of automation over time. Ensure accuracy, consistency, and professionalism in all published content—which may include social media posts, blog posts, video content (including captions), PowerPoint slides/decks, graphics/infographics, emails and data updates as well as research reports. Establish and evolve editorial style guides and publishing procedures.

Analytics

Oversee a research operations role for analysis of metrics such as readership/page views. Direct and review analysis of metrics. Report and recommendations based on this analysis—such as what we should publish and when, publications/formats we should retire, changes to cadence, etc.

Other

This role may involve recording segments for podcasts, talk tracks for videos, and similar. Coordinate and review the content of research emails (daily and weekly). Propose content and poof for formatting. In time, this may be migrated to a marketing colleague.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Liaise with colleagues in events, business development and leadership to align publishing priorities with broader business objectives. Propose new publication formats, approaches and subjects to evolve our research offering. Stay on top of trends in publishing, B2B research, and content marketing to keep our editorial approach competitive and modern.
