End date: 02/01/2026
Qualifications:
• Have at least 3 years’ reporting experience in digital journalism, including a comprehensive knowledge of how to use a CMS and understand the importance of metadata, tagging, captions and audience insights to ensure our content performs at its best
• Have experience interviewing and sourcing stories with a sound understanding of media law

Responsibilities:
We are looking for a brilliant digital journalist to lead its health and wellness coverage. This person will help shape and grow the original content produced to help define and elevate our voice in this space.
The right candidate will have a history of writing top-performing health content at a leading UK publication. They’ll boast excellent reporting and editorial judgment, plus the experience and flexibility to switch between hard and soft news.
A proven track record of creating helpful and shareable health content, with practical tips and takeaways, is ideal. This role is for someone who can simplify a science-heavy study, have experts on hand to add authority to any article necessary and be on top of the latest health fad trending on TikTok.
A flexibility to respond quickly to key moments that will pique audience interest and drive traffic, as well as working on strategic, long-lead content using insights is a must. Some experience working across multiple formats - especially social video will be beneficial and a solid understanding of SEO is a must. A track record in building a distinctive voice and perspective would also be an advantage.
This is a chance to work within a close-knit team, where collaboration is key and ideas are encouraged. Our global reach means that this is a fantastic chance for you to showcase your talent. This is a 12-month contract, offering the opportunity to come into our central London office as and when needed.
A bit more information about the role.
You will:
• Stay on top of the biggest health news, pitching, writing and building trending and seasonal content daily
• Remain focused on writing the best original content possible that both complements and stands out from our vast array of third-party content
• Help develop innovative ways to tell stories through new format approaches.
• Help grow our off-net audience by working with your editor and our Audience team to make data-informed coverage and strategy decisions
• Support the Lifestyle lead in managing the in-house and freelance team’s workflow in her absence
