This position is a three to six month temporary residency with the potential to go full-time immediately following. We are currently accepting applications for this position to start immediately.
Location: Remote
The Role
We're looking for someone who can help architect, write, and scale Gary Vaynerchuk's Substack as a thought-leadership and culture hub. The ideal candidate is a writer-strategist hybrid who lives and breathes storytelling, audience growth, and platform psychology.
You'll build out Gary's Substack presence: Shaping the content strategy, growing the subscriber base, and connecting it to the broader ecosystem of video and social content.
What You'll Do
Lead Substack strategy & growth: Own the publishing schedule, tone, and distribution strategy for Gary's Substack.
Research, write & edit: Turn Gary's ideas, interviews, and content into high-impact Substack content to build engagement and grow the subscriber base.
Interviewing: Interview Gary to extract his insights and produce original content.
Driving subscribers: Collaborate with the creative and platform teams to distribute Substack stories, and drive more subscribers. Come up with creative growth strategies.
Analyze & iterate: Go beyond surface metrics: Draw insights from engagement data and reader behavior to guide concepts we publish and frequency. Understand user behavior on the platform deeply.
Stay ahead of the curve: Keep tabs on Substack and newsletter best practices, algorithm updates, and emerging content patterns. Balance doing what works and what's proven, and experimenting with things no one else is doing.
You Might Be a Fit If You…
Have proven experience writing or editing for Substack, newsletters, or editorial brands that grew to meaningful audiences.
Have excellent long-form and short-form writing skills.
Have a deep understanding of Gary's message and personal brand. Understand what he talks about, and how he talks about it.
Understand social strategy: You know how content performs differently on Substack, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube, and can promote content contextually for the platform.
Are analytical and creative. Equally comfortable dissecting data dashboards and crafting an opening paragraph that hooks.
Are deeply curious. Curiosity translates to what you want to hear Gary should talk more about, and how the content is performing.
Are plugged into internet culture: You instinctively know what will resonate, and you can connect macro trends to what's relevant to Gary's brand.
We welcome Christian Scientists who feel inspired to contribute to the Monitor's mission "... to spread undivided the Science that operates unspent." (Miscellany, p. 353:16). While we may not have a current opening, we'd love to get to know you if you're interested in bringing your skills in reporting, writing or editing to this important work.

Opinion Writer
Boston Globe Media Partners 4.6
Writer and editor job in Boston, MA
Boston Globe Opinion has an opening for an opinion writer. The position's duties will include writing unsigned editorials, longer reported commentary, and shorter signed columns. For this position we are particularly interested in adding to our range of voices a writer who can thoughtfully articulate conservative or right-leaning perspectives.
Boston Globe Opinion is a team of about 25 journalists whose mission is to present incisive, clear, and informative commentary on a wide range of topics and from diverse points of view. We believe that an informed readership benefits from journalism that challenges as well as bolsters their beliefs.
Responsibilities:
In this role, the writer will be expected to participate in thrice-weekly editorial board meetings and to produce a regular cadence of unsigned editorials representing the collective view of the board. We are a regional news organization that focuses mainly on local and even hyperlocal issues. But we also weigh in on pressing national and international debates. In all these things, we strive for clarity, fairness, common sense, and well-reported judgments. The job requires working collegially with other board members who might come to the table with sharply differing points of view.
Writing editorials is only part of the job. This writer will also have the freedom to write signed columns about personal and public topics of their choosing, in collaboration with their editor. And they will be encouraged to do longer reported commentary for our Sunday Ideas section. Hitting the street, talking to people, and reading relevant documents and reports will always be stressed over armchair opining.
The writer will also be asked to contribute to our other digital products. These include weekly newsletters on politics and other subjects, short posts for Substack and social media, and short-form video. On occasion they might be asked to join in panel discussions on our weekly podcast, Say More.
Qualifications:
Understanding how to craft thoughtful, compelling, and clear editorials, first-person narratives, and in-depth commentary is vital. But we are also looking for candidates who are skilled in the basics of news reporting. That means comfortably navigating fast-breaking and chaotic events; locating and analyzing documents; conducting in-depth interviews; and writing swiftly.
Curiosity, intellectual independence, humility, analytical reasoning, and the creativity to generate compelling ideas are essential qualities for the job. A sense of humor is always a plus. So is the ability to write elegantly and with voice.
The ideal candidates should have some experience working for a daily news organization or weekly news magazine. Bonus points for demonstrated skill in hosting and/or producing short-form video, and optimizing written pieces for search and social. Double bonus points to candidates who are familiar with New England generally and the Boston area specifically.
Though we are looking for applicants whose world views lean right-of-center, we value open-mindedness and a sense of fairness over ideological purity.
The BGMP office is located in downtown Boston, near Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market, and is easily accessible by MBTA and commuter rail lines. This position is based in Boston, and candidates should be based in the area or willing to move.
The hourly rate for this role is $41.29 - $53.84.
This position is a union position covered by a collective bargaining agreement with the Boston Newspaper Guild.
It is unlawful in Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a condition of employment or continued employment. An employer who violates this law shall be subject to criminal penalties and civil liability.
EEO Statement: At Boston Globe Media, our mission is to empower, connect, and convene our communities with independent, trusted journalism and storytelling. We know a critical part of achieving this is by having a workforce that is representative of the communities we serve. Boston Globe Media is an equal opportunity employer that welcomes candidates and colleagues of all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and skills.
