Job Description
Do you love geeky movies and TV? Have a passion for writing? Available week nights and/or weekends? Want to reach millions of readers every month? We are looking for strong writers to join our news team. This is a fully remote freelance position that allows for flexible scheduling and opportunities in development and professional advancement.
You Will:
Β Compose engaging news articles - with a focus on informing readers why the news matters - not just what happened.
Β Work with editors to develop a unique angle or insight that will help our article stand out from the crowd.
Β Produce clean copy that is easy to edit, enjoyable to read, and free of typos.
Β Develop extensive knowledge of major movie and TV franchises, studios, and other industry elements - and perform research as needed to ensure articles both reinforce our authority in the space and satisfy our readers.
Β Follow editorial guidelines and adapt writing style to site voice (with plenty of room for personal flourishes) as needed.
Β Maintain professional standards of communication within our organization.
You Have:
Β Prior publishing experience in journalism or other professional writing fields (technical and/or creative).
Β A portfolio of past work for us to review.
Β Degree and/or certification in English-related education is a benefit but not mandatory.
Β Ambition, a passion for publishing, and a desire to help us connect with readers and grow our brand.
Availability in evenings or on weekends is required for this application - if you are not available during one of those time slots, please apply through our other movie/TV news application.
