Our global community engages with our content-spanning editorial, video, documentary and live - we reach 1 billion people each and every month.

Skills and experience we'd like you to have

• Experience creating original social content for your own channels or a publisher, brand or agency.
• Confident on camera and interviewing new people.
• Strong understanding of what makes content pop on different social platforms - from compelling storytelling to scroll-stopping hooks.
• An obsession with online culture - you keep up with platform trends and changes.
• A passion for factual content - whether documentaries, news, politics, history, health, culture, true crime or science.
• Creative and full of ideas - with a willingness to constantly try and test new things.
• Understanding of branded content and how commercial partnerships can succeed.
• Comfortable working independently while also collaborating as part of a team.
• Always on the lookout for interesting stories and people to feature.
