The Marketing Specialist (focusing on SEO & Affiliate content) plans, produces and places market-focused content that positions Eightcap and its spokespeople as credible voices in the trading community.

To drive real impact in this role, you will:

Own the Content Calendar: Plan and deliver market-focused articles, commentary and explainers across FX, central bank policy, macro data, commodities, indices and crypto.
Build Our Thought Leadership: Find the angles, ghost-write and prepare our leaders and analysts for interviews, panels and podcasts.
Win the Placements: Build relationships with journalists and editors and pitch tier-one and niche trading publications, including fast reactive commentary when markets move.

Run the Affiliate Content Engine: Supply content kits to affiliates and introducing partners, then make sure the content goes live on schedule and to standard.
Guard the Brand: Route content through Compliance and Legal and make sure everything meets our brand guidelines and each jurisdiction's financial promotion rules, risk warnings included.
Measure and Sharpen: Report monthly on coverage, share of voice, backlinks and referral traffic, manage award submissions and help us grow our presence in communities like Reddit.

Requirements

Minimum 3 years experience in content, editorial or digital PR.
Excellent written English, with the range to write for beginners and experienced traders alike.
Demonstrated previous experience working with SEO and exposure to AEO, including how AI assistants find and cite content.
Confidence using AI writing tools daily, with the judgement to edit and fact check their output and to translate content into other languages.

Hands-on CMS experience and comfort with tools like Google Search Console, GA4, SEMrush and Meltwater.
Organisation and self-direction, with the ability to juggle many pieces of work across several stakeholders.
An analytical mindset that tracks performance, finds insights and iterates on data.
An agile, accountable approach to getting things done in a fast-paced environment.
A global mindset and comfort working across time zones, with experience localising content across APAC, EMEA and LATAM highly desirable.
Bonus, but not essential: fintech, trading or financial services experience, working knowledge of CFDs, forex, commodities and indices, multi-region campaign experience, and paid community management beyond Meta (TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Reddit).
