Eightcap operates at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and global financial markets. Headquartered in Melbourne with a global footprint spanning the UK, Cyprus, and Bulgaria, we build the high-performance infrastructure that connects the world to CFD markets - reliably, securely and with precision.
The PR & Affiliate Content Manager plans, produces and places market-focused content that positions Eightcap and its spokespeople as credible voices in the trading community. The role combines traditional and digital PR; securing article placements and authoritative backlinks in finance and trading media, building a thought leadership program around our leaders and market analysts, and managing affiliate and introducing-partner relationships to make sure compliant, high-quality Eightcap content is published on their channels to drive AEO outcomes for the business.

- 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.
