Your role at informed
You will be in charge of all things copy across the brand. You will work closely with our Creative Director to work on a brand refresh.

You will work closely with a Senior Brand Designer to ensure the tone of voice and visual identity are developed simultaneously and consistently.

- You use the proper methods and approaches to accelerate writing decisions and are highly proactive
- Ideally, you have experience in SEO and can ensure the accuracy of all copy execution as a sub-editor.
💡 We do not expect that you check everything on these lists of expectations! If some of this applies and you want to grow, gain more experience and create meaningful impact, we definitely would love to hear from you.
That's how we assess
- First (30min) – we'll get to know each other - meaning you also get the chance to interview us to see whether our mindsets match.
- Second (45min) – you’ll receive a case study with one of the challenges we are facing to show us your approach and how you think. We want to be mindful of your time and ask you to only spend 1-2hrs on it. If you're curious about how you can stand out 👇
- Make an assessment of your idea
- Tell us what you'd recommend and why
- Third (30 min each) – you'll meet the rest of the team (Design, Product, Editorial) to check whether you'd enjoy working with us.
- At the end (30min) – you will talk with Ben and Katja about what you took away from the interviews so far and about your position.
→ We hope to do this within 2-3 weeks. Starting time depends on you, as we are ready!
⏱ We know it's difficult to carve out time out of your busy schedules for a task when you're a mother, father, or any other kind of caregiver. Please mention it in our first conversation, so we can find an individual solution that works for you!

Take the opportunity to work on the future of journalism!
At informed we believe that quality journalism plays a great role in our lives. It enables us to understand and navigate the world better when we are provided with the right content in the right format at the right time.
We want to transform the way journalism is consumed to close the existing gap between readers and creators by making it accessible & sustainable.
We are an editorial, engineering & design-driven team based in Berlin, working remote-first building the next go-to platform for journalism.
As we are still a small team, we are hiring around our home base, Berlin, thus all open roles are remote with the limitation of +/-4h timezones around Berlin to create enough overlap with the whole team.

This is the essence of why informed exists: to bring more people quality journalism covering the most pressing issues of our time. Together, we can fight misinformation and polarisation. Cut through the noise. Shine a light on the truth. Reclaim trust. And continue to take part in the conversations that count.
