Job description

Overview

The Stories team is a small but mighty facet of Mercury’s Brand team that works on all flavors of storytelling — from content marketing to editorial, social, live programming, email, and beyond. We’re blog builders, magazine makers, newsletter strategists, social media managers, video producers, and creative thinkers who work in very close partnership with Design, Copy, Growth Marketing, Product Marketing, Comms, Community, and others across the company.

We’re looking for an Insights Editor — equal parts researcher, analyst, and bold editorial thinker — to come build our muscle for data-driven storytelling. In this role, you’ll concept and create exemplary, deeply resonant, and expressive content with data at its core. You’ll expand the world of data stories at Mercury, developing resources, processes, and relationships that turn those stories possibilities and those possibilities into leverage. And you’ll act as a steward and face of the content you create, helping internal teams understand the stories in the numbers around them, and ensuring our external audiences and communities derive real value from them, too. This is an individual contributor position.

  • Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust; Members FDIC.

If you are…

  • An analytical thinker and writer who can balance strong subject matter acumen and creative flair…
  • Adept at breaking down complex concepts clearly and finding the most luminous details and sparkling clarity in the numbers…
  • Deeply curious and audience focused, forever in pursuit of how to express, examine, and share interesting throughlines in ways that they will understand and relate to…
  • Comfortable engaging in relevant public conversations...
  • …Then this might just pique your interest.Read on.

    In this role, you will :

  • Strategize and craft compelling, dynamic data-driven research, reports, articles, thought leadership, educational materials, and other data-driven stories across formats.
  • Publish a regular stream of data-driven content, and contribute data story points to content across Marketing and Communications.
  • Proactively identify and action opportunities for data storytelling to deliver the next level of intrigue, value, and / or differentiation to our content programs.
  • Develop and engage in data-focused content partnerships inside and outside Mercury.
  • Unlock systems, processes, and workflows that enable more Mercury marketers to engage with the data you use, explore, and illuminate.
  • As needed, act as a public face for Mercury’s data-driven thought leadership.
  • You have :

  • Very well-honed research, data analysis, and writing skills.
  • At least 7 years of experience telling stories with data.
  • Deep knowledge of finance, fintech, banking, and / or economics, along with strong awareness of / interest in the founder landscape (think startups, entrepreneurship, whether bootstrapped or VC-backed, mom-and-pop or Silicon Valley, etc.).
  • Prior publications or a portfolio that demonstrates your ability to tell interesting stories effectively with data.
  • Excitement around the visual elements of data storytelling, and experience collaborating with designers or agencies to bring data to life visually
  • Foundational SQL (or similar) skills — you can make simple queries independently and collaborate confidently with data scientists.
  • Comfort working in a remote-first, distributed environment, using tools like Google suite, Asana, and Slack to make async communication seamless.
  • Nice to have :

  • An existing newsletter, podcast, or well-established social media following on relevant topics or research.
  • Familiarity with the compliance rigor of working on content in a highly regulated industry.
  • To apply, please complete your application, and submit a cover letter along with your portfolio, website, or other samples of your work. Give us an idea of how you show up and tell data-driven stories in the world. We will not consider applications without a cover letter and work samples.
