Deal & Content Writing Team Member (Remote, CA business hours)
About the role
Jack’s Flight Club is a fully remote business with team members all over the world. We’re committed to uncovering outrageous flight bargains and removing the barriers to travel. We are looking to add a junior eagle-eyed flight searcher and content writer to turn our member’s (long overdue) travel dreams into reality.
You’ll be joining a small team of experts going the extra mile to find and write up engaging and informative cheap flight tips for our audience in Canada with some help in the US.
About you
Our ideal candidate is a passionate traveller who knows their way around travelling on a budget, who loves to go off the beaten track and mix with the locals.
Most importantly, they’ll have a keen eye for writing concise copy with personality and humour and get a kick out of sending someone on a vacation they never imagined taking.
As this is a starting position, you will get all the training and support you need to become an expert in air travel. But, a proven record of working with large data sets and making complex decisions is a big plus.
Responsibilities
- Searching for flight deals that help our members travel more and save cash.
- Writing engaging, informative and inspirational flight tips.
- Analysing email performance and experimenting to improve engagement.
- Collaborating with other team members to ensure timely delivery and comprehensive coverage of emails, managing your own time effectively.
- Sending different types of emails and push notifications to members.
- Testing and giving feedback on new internal and customer-facing features.
Once you master the day-to-day flight hacking, the role may have future opportunities to write long-form content and facilitate connections in our large community of travellers, as well as supporting our editorial and social media teams to make JFC a go-to destination for inspiring travel content.
This is a full-time junior role (37.5 hours) that involves some (limited/flexible) holiday work where you’ll get time in lieu. Our deals are often time-sensitive, so we’re looking for someone who can work during Canadian daytime hours.
Experience and requirements
- A quick-thinking and engaging writer who can adapt to our conversational, punchy tone, is good at polishing even the smallest details and delivering copy that’s ready to go.
- Just as important is the ability to analyse lots of data and build comprehensive expertise of flight pricing and location information.
- Someone who isn’t afraid to ask questions or receive and give feedback.
- Has flexibility for covering on holidays
- Understands how critical communication is at a fully remote company and has experience or can adapt to effectively collaborating with colleagues all over the world.
- Good at picking up technical skills quickly and comfortable working with a range of software and tools.
- This position would suit new graduates, but if you have some experience publishing your writing (think university magazines, Substack or other blog platform etc.), with SEO, or a working knowledge of HTML or other web markup/template language, that’s a big plus.
