Senior Journalist / Channel Manager

Background 

We are starting up a video news channel on our solar energy platform ENF Solar, which currently has 5 million users annually and has been operating for 18 years. The channel will be run by a senior journalist (this post), with support from the existing team as well as design and video editing staff. The new channel will get heavy marketing support from the main platform.

This is an opportunity to build a news channel published on our platform, newsletters, YouTube, and social media from the ground up. The focus will be on great quality content that helps the solar industry, not on monetization. 

Roles & Responsibilities 

We are looking for video interviews to be made over Zoom with solar companies around the world – chatting about interesting business, market, and technology topics.

• Experience in guest recruitment and channel management.
• Work with the creative executive to map out and design engaging topic series.
• Guide the team to create content and grow the channel audience.
• Get support from others in the company to identify potential topic interviewees.
• Investigate topics and conduct interviews.

Requirements:

• You should have an engaging personality, and the ability to chat to interview subjects to find out what interesting market insights they may have for you to base an interview around;
• Candidate must possess at least a Diploma or Degree or major in Journalism, Mass Communications, or equivalent;
• Fluent spoken and written English;
• Have interviewed people before;
• Competent in learning technical knowledge;
• Creative and able to chat with solar companies and sniff out topics of interest;
• Have been involved with TV/podcast guest recruitment before;
• Team management experience is preferred.

Benefits:

• Full-time: 5 working days per week, 38 hours per week (7.6 hours per day. A minimum of 4 hours per day) - This is a work-from-home position where you will work with colleagues from around the world. There will be a lot of flexibility in working time rather than fixed working schedules - just make sure to overlap your schedule with colleagues a few hours each day to enable interactions.
• We invest in and take care of our people – you will have not just a job but a career, an ever-learning journey, and a team that always takes care of each other. 

Why EN?

ENF is an environmental web platform that promotes companies in the solar industry and the recycling industry. We have been running for 18 years and are the most popular solar B2B website in the world with over 4 million users each year.

Our site is complex – we link companies, products, buyer leads, prices and price data trends and much more wrapped in a multi-language in-house translation system. We have a lot of exciting development plans – modernizing our site and expanding our internal and external functionalities.
