Product News & Intelligence Editor

About Us LabX Media Group is a leading worldwide science publishing company that delivers meaningful industry content and integrated marketing solutions for the scientific community. LabX Media Group’s brands and product solutions deliver trusted, timely and deep information across print and digital products to empower our customers and advance their research. We are looking for a Product News & Intelligence Editor to join our team! The Opportunity We’re creating a new role at the center of LabX Media Group’s (LMG’s) editorial and commercial strategy: the Product News & Intelligence Editor. Every week, the lab equipment and life science industries generate dozens of meaningful product launches — new instruments, reagents, software platforms, and laboratory technologies. These announcements matter deeply to our audiences, and they represent moments when the companies behind them are actively looking to build awareness and reach buyers. Product news coverage is an area we're actively investing in and this role plays a key part. You’ll build and own a systematic, high-output product news workflow that serves multiple LMG brands simultaneously — publishing timely, search-optimized coverage for our readers while generating the commercial intelligence our sales teams need to have smarter conversations with advertisers. This is a new kind of editorial role: one that’s designed from the ground up around AI-assisted production. You’ll use structured AI workflows to publish 50–60 articles per week at a quality level that would previously have required a much larger team. The AI handles the mechanical work; you supply the judgment, accuracy, and editorial instinct that makes the output genuinely useful. Key Responsibilities - Publish product news across LabX Media Group brands - Produce 50–60 short-to-mid-length product news articles per week, distributed across LMG properties based on audience fit. - Translate each announcement for the publication’s specific audience. - Optimize every article for both traditional SEO and generative engine optimization (GEO). - Apply rigorous fact-checking discipline — no specifications, regulatory claims, or technical figures go to publish without source verification. - Deliver sales intelligence briefs by producing concise internal briefs for LMG’s sales reps. - Support earned media coverage - Produce editorial that supports advertisers’ programs by extending and contextualizing their stories for our audiences. - Maintain and improve the workflow - Operate within — and actively improve — a standardized library of AI prompt templates for article drafting and brief generation. - Contribute to workflow documentation so processes are reproducible and transferable. - Stay current with developments in AI content tooling and proactively propose improvements. Qualifications Required: - A background in science, life science, science media, or science marketing communications. - Strong, clear writing ability — specifically the capacity to translate technical product information into audience-appropriate editorial copy quickly, accurately, and at volume. - Demonstrated fluency with AI writing tools and a structured, process-oriented approach to AI-assisted content production. - Exceptional attention to detail and a high personal standard for factual accuracy. - Self-directed and highly organized — this role carries significant daily autonomy alongside clearly measurable output expectations. Nice to Have: - Familiarity with laboratory equipment categories: analytical instruments, consumables, reagents, automation, or laboratory software. - Prior experience in B2B media, trade publishing, or science marketing communications. - Working knowledge of SEO tools such as Google Search Console, Semrush, or Ahrefs. - Understanding of how media advertising products work — sponsored content, category sponsorship, newsletter placements, display. - Genuine curiosity about AI workflow optimization, not just day-to-day tool use…
