Citywire helps investors and asset managers to connect in many ways: Citywire publishes its own news, analysis and unique fund manager performance information to help professional investors - from financial advisers, wealth managers to fund selectors - make the best decisions about where to place their clients' money. We currently employ over 300 people with offices around the world in London, Brighton, New York, Munich, Milan, Singapore, Paris and Sydney but we have a presence in countries all over the globe. It's an exciting time to join us since we're expanding our teams and delivering on new projects that will take Citywire to the next level.

Being on the ground in South Africa, you will also be required to attend various industry events as a representative of Citywire South Africa.

The team is multi-disciplined and contributes editorial content, research projects based on intelligence gathered on-the-road, delegate recruitment for national and international events and control the internal database of registered professional users across both fund buyers and financial advisers.

This role is ideal for an outgoing individual who enjoys meeting new people, is willing to do what it takes to get the job done from the smallest to the more fulfilling tasks, is creative and is most comfortable.

**Who we are**

Having a common set of values sets the tone of everything we do and how we do it. These values should feel intuitive and natural - conversely, not supporting these values is a serious problem

**Honesty**, **integrity**, **fairness **and **respect **are four core values. We can and should disagree with one another, in the interests of getting the right answer. Arguments for truth, not ego. We should always focus on sustainability at every level of the company.

Excelling at your job will contribute to high performance at Citywire. You should have a continuous and constructive spoken dialogue with your manager about your performance, with particular reference to these behaviours: _**A positive approach**_; _**collaborating with colleagues**_; _**a make-it-happen attitude**_._

**Additional notes**

Pre-selected applicants will have to undertake 2 psychometric tests.

Interviews will take place via Zoom/Teams.
