This is your opportunity to join a high-performing international media company, working on our market-leading insurance portfolio, covering one of the most dynamic sectors in US business.

• Medical, dental benefits, EAP & 401(k)
• Global career opportunities
• Industry-leading brands - write for Insurance Business America
• Training & growth - editorial coaching + unlimited LinkedIn Learning
• Time off that grows with you - extra vacation day each year + paid volunteer day
• Travel opportunities - attend major events like IB FutureFest
• Work from anywhere - up to 12 weeks per year abroad

• A proactive approach-comfortable chasing contacts and uncovering stories
• Excellent writing, news sense, and deadline discipline
• Interest in using AI as a reporting tool to enhance your work
