Hey, hey!

I hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

It’s Friday once again which means a fresh job roundup.

Read on to find 32 new gigs from a wide range of companies, plus a few other interesting finds.

But first, this week’s jobs are brought to you in part by Authory.

One thing I’ve been loving about Authory (aside from the portfolio benefits) is it shows you how often your articles get shared on social media.

You can easily track how your content is landing with the audiences of your clients which is pretty cool. Here’s a bit about what else the platform has to offer.
