London, United Kingdom Time Out Full time

**Location**:London

**Department**:Content

**Reporting to**: London Editor

**About the role**

Our new London staff writer will help the Time Out team cover the city comprehensively by writing and updating news posts, features, listings and more, covering the full diversity of London’s cultural life - from new trends to major city events, the biggest tourist spots to the newest openings.

Our content goes big on food, drink, culture (both low and high) and offbeat, under-the-radar things to do. Readers turn to us because no one knows the city like Time Out; because we give a local’s perspective on everything from the biggest tourist attractions to the tiniest tucked-away bars; because they want to know what a city is really like. We tell them about places in a way that’s funny, engaging and useful.

We’re looking for someone who is obsessed with the many experiences of living and going out in London, with a deep, wide-ranging knowledge of the city’s culture, and a desire to share that knowledge with as many people as possible.

This role would suit someone with two to three years’ experience as a staff or freelance writer, especially if you’ve written across a wide range of formats from news to social posts, SEO content, features and reviews. You should have the ability to create photo and video content for social platforms, and to innovate with story formats and approaches to storytelling.

**Key Responsibilities**
- Create original news posts, features and listings on the Time Out London site. Day-to-day this will include writing, research, and digital production using our in-house CMS in line with best practice and SEO.
- Be a key contributor to Time Out’s social and video content, including writing social posts and scripts, editing video in social apps, travelling to venues across the city and appearing on-screen where appropriate.
- Break rising stories and trends, keeping a finger on the pulse of city life and culture.
- Be informed by digital analytics to ensure published work is contributing towards team goals.
- Expand Time Out’s London coverage with new ideas, content opportunities and formats.
- Ensure Time Out’s editorial standards are met, all relevant copyrights have been cleared and content meets all legal guidelines.
- Embrace Time Out’s digital-first, mobile-first philosophy; a strong background in digital content is essential.

Time Out is a company filled with individuals as diverse as the cities we live in and cover. At the same time there are common characteristics and values we all share. To join our team, you’ll want to
- Be commercially astute_
- Either have experience at or want to dive headfirst into a fast-paced transformative company in pursuit of excellence_
- Think globally_
- Have excellent communication and relationship building skills_
- Have a high sense of ownership, urgency and drive_
- Be a team player_
