What are the responsibilities and job description for the Investment Writer position at H-Squared?
Ghostwriter to Founder – Global Investment Firm
Shape the voice behind one of the most influential minds in investing.
The Opportunity
This is not a typical writing role.
You’ll become the voice behind the founder of a globally recognised investment firm, crafting high-impact, opinion-led articles that shape how investors, clients, and the wider market think about finance.
Your work will appear in major financial publications, reaching a sophisticated global audience. You’ll translate complex market insights into clear, persuasive narratives that cut through noise and influence decision-making at the highest level.
Working closely with senior leadership, research teams, and experienced editors, you’ll develop a deep understanding of the firm’s investment philosophy, and bring it to life in a distinctive, authoritative voice.
What You’ll Do
- Write compelling, Op-Ed style articles on financial markets, economics, and investing
- Ghostwrite directly on behalf of the firm’s founder and senior leadership
- Translate complex ideas into clear, engaging, and persuasive content
- Produce high-quality writing at pace, supporting a consistent publishing cadence
- Research unfamiliar topics using internal resources and independent analysis
- Adapt messaging for international audiences across key global markets
- Monitor financial media and identify timely, high-impact themes to respond to
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent)
- 3 years of professional writing experience
- At least 1 year of financial writing experience, ideally in the investment space
- Proven experience ghostwriting persuasive, opinion-led (Op-Ed) content
- Exceptional ability to simplify complex topics without losing nuance
- Strong editorial instincts—clarity, structure, tone, and precision matter
- Comfortable working to deadlines in a high-output, high-performance environment
Why This Role Stands Out
- Visibility & Impact – Your writing will shape public market narratives
- Access – Work directly with senior leadership and top-tier investors
- Platform – Publish in leading global financial outlets
- Growth – Develop a rare skillset at the intersection of markets, media, and influence
