Overall Function


EDF’s digital team executes a wide range of projects to support EDF’s goals, from testing and optimizing single elements to building more complex sections on content. We are a close-knit, collaborative group that is committed to ongoing training, learning, and experimentation to develop individually and as a team.


Succeeding in the Digital Content Specialist role means much more than creating content and project coordination. You will play a key role in interfacing with internal stakeholders, defining projects and translating our goals into good user experiences. You will manage feedback from stakeholders throughout the organization. You will find solutions in close partnership with our developers and designers, and help those solutions succeed by participating in QA and user testing efforts.
