This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of the team working on what is recognised as the world’s longest-running women’s weekly magazine – in its 150th anniversary year. Reporting to the assistant editor (features), the successful candidate will be generating feature ideas in line with the brand’s values, then writing or commissioning them, as appropriate.

An excellent command of written English, an awareness of copyright law and the ability to meet tight deadlines are essential to the role, as are good communication skills. You should be a team player, working closely with editorial, production and design colleagues and the editorial director to deliver results.
