What makes you a potential Legend?
-
We seek resourceful and kind self-starters who enjoy autonomy, a dynamic
environment, and high accountability. You’ll thrive here if you’re always
eager to learn, value constructive feedback, and are excited by big goals.
-
In terms of technical skills for the Managing Editor role, you ideally bring:
-
A track record of writing and editing high-quality content, boosting user
engagement and organic traffic.
-
The ability to do the above whilst keeping SEO best practices.
-
A strong managerial toolkit, understanding how to best lead your team members
to unlock the most of their potential.
Why might we not be right for you, though?
- We are not a place where you join, and it's an easy ride. We have clear KPIs
and goals as we strive towards our multi-year strategic vision. This might be
stressful at times, but will also lead you to supercharge how fast you unlock
your own potential.
- We work in a fast-paced industry, and we believe learning quickly is more
effective than analyzing forever before acting. That does lead to an
environment where you will experience change more frequently than in a
typical company.
- We don’t have a micro-management environment where someone is always
breathing down your neck. In other words: You need to be self-driven and
proactive to make the most of your environment and achieve the growth you set
out to achieve.
You could settle for ordinary - or you could join us
-
For this role as Managing Editor, you will have multiple chances to progress
further with us over time.
-
We can’t make any iron-clad promises as to timelines, as more senior roles
are unlocked by us reaching our organizational targets. But an example could
include growing into a Head of Content role while supercharging your content
and leadership skillset further.
-
Once you’ve passed your probation, we will make an IDP together, helping you
reach your long-term career ambitions.
Otherwise:
- We thrive from helping our team members grow their skills and careers. It's
one of our biggest motivations as a company.
- We consistently score way above average in our eNPS surveys. Being #1 is only
worth it if we’re having fun along the journey.
- We offer flexible working hours. Our core hours are from 10 am to 3 pm your
local time, as we need to have times when we can meet. But you can usually
arrange with your manager when you have personal needs.
- We benchmark our compensation packages annually using external auditors who
tell us what the market is paying, ensuring that our package is in the top
percentile. When we say we offer a “competitive package,” we mean it. We also
have a long-term incentive plan so we can all share in the growth and success
of Legend.
- We offer 30 days or more of leave a year, including our "free" Christmas
company break, birthdays, and life event days
- We host exciting global Legend events twice a year, where we unite in person
to ignite our shared passion and unveil the exciting strategies for the year
ahead!
