Name: Erin Burke

JobDetails: Freelance Web Writer and Analyst

We are a U.S.-based firm seeking a U.K. freelance editor/writer and analyst for our private online consumer communities/clubs. These communities are designed to help consumer product goods companies find consumer pain points and innovation opportunities. Communities, which run four months or more, are activity-focused, and need a project manager/writer to prepare activity and general web content, analyze responses, and draft client reports.

We are looking for a smart, very reliable freelancer who is experienced in eliciting and analyzing qualitative consumer responses, knowledgeable about general consumer trends, and has a sharp eye for interesting consumer insights. In addition, you must be an excellent writer and communicator, quick study, astute interpreter and synthesizer, outstanding organizer, superb self-manager, and detail-oriented project manager. Experience writing for women will be a huge plus.

Specific tasks include:
*Help articulate the focus and goals of each Community/Club
*Review and digest background insights initially provided by client
*Help draft initial surveys to screen prospective Club members
*Outline Editorial Calendar of activities for Club duration (4 months or more, 2-3 activities per week), write activities, and revise as client requests
*Edit standard Club pages to match terms, conditions, etc., of specific Club
*Draft weekly emails, moderator letter, and announcements to Community
*Proof site before each weekly refresh
*Moderate Community as necessary and appropriate
*Analyze and report on Activity response on a weekly basis; nominate Club prize winners; draft client update mail
*Revise Editorial Calendar throughout in response to input from community, client, and internal project managers
*Prepare monthly and final summary reports for client (PowerPoint presentation)
*Provide informal summary and recommendations to internal project managers at Club conclusion re. Club management, process, etc.

This is NOT a Web Development position. All documents can be completed in MS Word, data downloads through Excel, and all formal reports prepared in PowerPoint. Must have reliable Web access.

This is remote freelance work, with no travel required, but does require weekly deliverables from you. We anticipate the job will take on average about 30 hours per month, with the greatest commitment at month beginning (prepping the activities) and month end (drafting the client report).

Please email a cover letter and resume, outlining in detail your experience in:
*Writing and editing
*Qualitative data solicitation and analysis
*Report preparation
*Project management (especially on freelance basis)
*Online projects
*Community management
*Client services
