-   **Build Our Thought Leadership:** Find the angles, ghost-write and prepare our leaders and analysts for interviews, panels and podcasts.
-   **Win the Placements:** Build relationships with journalists and editors and pitch tier-one and niche trading publications, including fast reactive commentary when markets move.
-   **Earn the Backlinks:** Run digital PR and link-building campaigns with our SEO team and agency to earn high-authority links and drive AEO outcomes.
-   **Run the Affiliate Content Engine:** Supply content kits to affiliates and introducing partners, then make sure the content goes live on schedule and to standard.
-   **Guard the Brand:** Route content through Compliance and Legal and make sure everything meets our brand guidelines and each jurisdiction's financial promotion rules, risk warnings included.
-   **Measure and Sharpen:** Report monthly on coverage, share of voice, backlinks and referral traffic, manage award submissions and help us grow our presence in communities like Reddit.
