We're proud to have landed on the Inc. 5000 list of Fastest Growing Private Companies in the U.S. for the second year in a row!

How to Apply
We're looking for an exceptional writer with an editor's instinct for what an audience actually wants – someone who can spot the story inside a topic and pays close attention to the details that make a session land.

To demonstrate that, please include a brief cover letter that pitches us one session:
  • Give us a session title and a two-sentence description for a Ragan conference, plus the speaker you'd go after, why them, and how you'd get them to say yes. Tell us who in our audience it's for and why they need this session now.
Applications without a cover letter will not be considered – this helps us identify candidates who take the time to fully read and engage with our job description.
