Deputy Editor

Please note: Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States. LendingTree and its affiliates (“LendingTree”) will not provide or assume sponsorship for employment visas for this position, now or in the future.
The Opportunity
LendingTree is seeking a deputy editor focused on insurance to join our SEO editorial team. This is an individual-contributor role that will partner closely with the team’s in-house and contributing editors and writers. We’re especially interested in candidates who can speak to specific area(s) of insurance expertise — home, auto, health, or other lines — but who are also comfortable working across a wide range of insurance products.
How You’ll Make an Impact
As deputy editor, you will assist with the full editorial process: assigning, editing, and publishing. You’ll partner with writers and other editors to sharpen content quality, substance, and style, and you’ll oversee editorial workflows and publishing priorities, proactively resolving challenges, so that high-quality content ships on schedule. You may also write content yourself as needed.
You’ll also think beyond individual articles, understanding how each piece fits into the broader content library and contributes to the vertical’s overall performance. This is an exciting opportunity to help shape and organize a rapidly expanding content library at a pivotal stage of growth.
Serving as one of our in-house insurance specialists, your expert guidance will help readers make informed, confident decisions on insurance. There will be opportunities to speak externally to the media as an insurance authority as well.
