About this task

This household products maker in cleaning products (5,000+ employees) is looking for a director Content Lead for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Reviews all existing pages and decides keep, update, merge or delete.

A fresh pair of experienced eyes is needed, and the result is a document or file the team can use straight away. It sells consumer goods through retailers, so planning cycles run to a fixed monthly calendar.

The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in New York, so this one is for residents there. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call.

What you deliver

  • Audit 250 blog posts, score each on traffic and quality and produce an action list.
  • A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope
  • One round of edits after the company's review is included
  • A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

How the work runs

  • Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared
  • Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback
  • Last day: final version and handover note

Duration: about 10 working days. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.
