LondonNet Editorial Assistant
London is a busy place, it seems. Seven-or-so million people, and there are still more unique ideas popping up all over. Here at LondonNet, we like new ideas, which is why we're looking for a new editorial assistant.
Instead of pushing paper, sharpening your stapling skills, or dancing with the copier, you could be working on things that actually matter for your career. Like reporting on the wide array of arts & entertainment happenings all through out London.
You'll get experience doing the following:
Getting published in the longest standing London website
Source reporting
News writing
Critical commentary, in arts & entertainment
Photojournalism
Copyediting
Working closely alongside an editorial team
Creating and executing story concepts, ideas and applications
Wow. Yeah. Lots of things to do, none of which include the words 'memo' or 'Tippex'. We consider this a large achievement, and we hope our interns appreciate it, too.
Not Just Anyone:
We don't take just any old poor soul, however. They are irrepressible self-starters, brimming with ideas and excitement about life in the Big Smoke. More than this, they are social creatures, professional, and have a vested interest in some facet of arts & entertainment. Usually, their interest verges on obsession.
More specifically, we look for students who have the following skills & experience:
Good degree in English, media, communications, journalism or other written-arts BA or Graduate programme, at an accredited university.
Substantial experience reporting or editing for a media outlet
Able to write well, efficiently and with personal flavour, under deadline and within house style specifications
Wide range of interests and life-experiences; able to adjust quickly to a new cultural and social environment
Highly self-motivated and communicative
Interest in the arts community, including fine arts, theatre, film, food & wine, clubs, etc
Personal interest and excitement in exploring the wide variety of experiences that come with living in London
And How:
Alright. So, you have the general information. If you're interested in more details you can send an email (with header "Editorial Assistant") and CV attached to the following address: admin@londonnet.co.uk .
We'll be happy to get back to you.
