London, United Kingdom Mindful Chef Full time

**More Than Just A Job**:
The goal is simple, to make healthy eating easy and accessible across the UK. As a proud B-Corp we focus on using business as a force for good. We do this by balancing people and planet with profit. For every recipe box bought we donate the equivalent of a school meal to a less developed country (over 18 million meals donated and counting...) and we have also pledged to go Net Zero by 2030 but there are so many other initiatives that we would love to tell you about

**What we are looking for**:
Can you spot an errant apostrophe at 50 paces? Chop a too-long method into bite-sized pieces? Would your friends politely call you a ‘perfectionist’? If you love food, you love writing, and you’d like to give your keen eye for detail a new home - we need you As Recipe Editor you’ll be our gatekeeper-in-chief. You’ll guard the recipe portfolio with a santoku knife (not literally), and you’ll be like Obi-Wan Kenobe helping with the production of our weekly recipe magazine. And even though you’ll be reporting into the Culinary Lead as part of the Food Team, you’ll be BFF’s with Brand and Comms, making sure our TOV is seen and heard in everything you do.

**You are**:

- Excellent organisational skills, including multi-tasking with the ability to work to short deadlines and in a fast paced environment
- 2 years+ recipe writing/editing experience
- Hawk-eye proof-reading experience
- In-depth food and ingredients knowledge
- Good communication skills
- Proven attention to detail
- Strong G-suite skills

**You will**:

- Own the recipes after kitchen sign-off;
- Work with the kitchen team to manage and refine the recipe-writing style guide
- Keep our back catalogue of recipes current, and methods up-to-date
- Create a marketing description for each recipe
- Update upcoming recipe titles, descriptions and key ingredient icons
- Support the kitchen & warehouse team with ingredient substitutions and stock usage
- Understand the perspective of our customers and support the kitchen team write clear and concise recipes
- Manage the production of the weekly recipe magazine;
- Ensure recipes are print ready each week for the weekly recipe booklet - we have 60 recipes per week
- Ensure our recipes deliver on our brand TOV, working closely with the Brand Lead to ensure our brand comes to life through our recipes
- Work with Creative to proof and revise magazine on WeApprove software
- Work with Oaklands under tight time constraints to make last minute changes on weekly magazine
- Work closely with the marketing team, writing;
- Monthly campaign copy
- Founders notes
- The Foodie Newsletter
- Recipe descriptions
