Job Description

Editor, Features & Production (Part-Time)

UK Based Applicants only

Please note, this is a part-time role of two days per week.

Who we are

We spend the majority of our waking hours at work. Making sure those hours are as happy, healthy, and productive as possible is imperative – and this is where HR Grapevine comes in. We’re the go-to source for impeccable journalism within the HR sector, and we produce a huge range of amazing content to cover their needs.

What do we want from you?

We’re looking for someone who can pitch, plan, and write detailed long-form pieces of content including interviews, case studies, reports, and white papers; and to host and moderate virtual and in-person multimedia events including HR Grapevine podcast episodes, webinars, roundtables, meet-ups, and panels. This will also include building or bringing a strong contact book of HR professionals and a keen interest in networking with industry leaders.

This role will suit someone with a strong level of autonomy, who enjoys writing in-depth articles and hosting in-person events in equal measure. Given the reduced working schedule, this would suit an individual looking for steady work to become deeply ingrained in a community of senior HR leaders while keeping the flexibility to complete other projects or keep up with work-life balance demands.
