London, UK
Partnerships editor
at Dezeen
Dezeen is seeking a partnerships editor to join its team in London.
Dezeen is looking for a partnerships editor to oversee our paid-for editorial and branded content.
We’re looking for a talented writer and editor to oversee Dezeen’s partnership content, which includes paid-for editorial promotions, competitions and brand collaborations, as well as listings on Dezeen Showroom, a platform where brands can launch new products and showcase their designers and projects.
The partnerships editor will report to Dezeen’s chief content officer Benedict Hobson and editor Tom Ravenscroft.
Duties will include:
- editing all partnership content to ensure it is of the highest quality
- writing and assembling partnership content articles and posts
- commissioning writers, both internal Dezeen staff and freelancers, to produce partnership content
- managing two people: a partnership content manager and project manager
- working with the sales team to manage partnership content schedules
- liaising with clients
Successful applicants must have exceptional writing and subbing skills, an up-to-date knowledge of how to optimise content for the web, and at least two years of editing experience.
Excellent standards of written English are essential, as well as an ability to work quickly and accurately. You must have good organisational skills and be confident managing a small team.
A working knowledge of the architecture and design industry is highly desirable. Previous experience using a CMS would also be valuable. Proficiency in Photoshop would be a bonus, but is not essential.
In the long term, we intend for the role to be based at Dezeen’s office in Hoxton, London, UK. However, due to the current coronavirus pandemic, the role will initially require a significant amount of remote working.
We would also be willing to consider permanent remote working for the right candidate.
Dezeen is an equal opportunities employer. We celebrate diversity and promote equality and inclusion amongst our staff. We welcome applications from all, regardless of personal characteristics or background.
To apply, please submit your CV and a selection of writing samples together with a cover letter to Matt Kos using the link below.
