Summary
Simply Wall St is evolving from a research platform into a Portfolio Command Center for stock investors. The Market Analyst will create timely, original investment analysis in written and video formats, present weekly YouTube content, interview company executives, and build audience trust as a recognizable investment voice.
Responsibilities
- Publish weekly articles responding to market events, earnings and possibly shine the spotlight on certain companies of interest
- Gather information on newsworthy topics globally and craft original—often contrarian—ideas that distinguish Simply Wall St from run-of-the-mill financial news
- Present one long-form YouTube video per week (roughly 4 per month), going deep on a stock, sector, or investing theme
- Interview Executives from listed companies for video content in addition to the regular weekly videos
- Take scripts grounded in real analysis and deliver them as videos people actually want to watch. Bring natural, conversational delivery—landing the hook, the emotional beats, and the call to action without sounding like you're reading
- Sustain energy, clarity, and personality across longer runtime, where holding attention matters more than a punchy hook
- Bring credibility and warmth to often-dense material—make it feel like a conversation, not a lecture
- Work from scripts written by yourself or by our editorial team
- Be the recognizable face and voice that builds audience trust and habit-forming engagement across YouTube, articles, and community. Help build our on-camera presence into a recognizable authority for retail investors
- Develop a personal brand as a trusted investment voice while serving Simply Wall St's broader mission. Your credibility serves both
- Film on a predictable weekly cadence to support a steady publishing schedule. Work collaboratively with our editorial and video production teams, incorporating feedback quickly
- Be comfortable with a channel and publication in build mode—evolving format, early days, real input into what works
