Editors are continuously collaborating with the culinary team, nutrition team, photo team, product operations team, menu planning team, project managers, editors, proofreaders, and production designers to produce over 100 recipe cards and meal stories every week across our HelloFresh, EveryPlate, Green Chef, and Factor brands.

The ideal candidate should have an intimate understanding of culinary arts as it relates to recipe writing and food media, with the ability to meet tight deadlines while also maintaining great flexibility when necessary. You enjoy collaborating with co-workers across multiple departments, and know how to facilitate a constant stream of communication. More than anything else, you understand that HelloFresh recipes are the most important connection we have with our consumers, and a successful recipe ensures a truly successful customer experience.

You will...

  • Copywriting to include:
    • Writing recipe card and web descriptions
    • Creating recipe titles and subtitles
  • Meet deadlines across all projects and tasks
  • Ensure quality control of recipe cards, to include photography, ingredients, steps, and requested changes are accounted for
  • Contribute to editorial efforts on specialty projects
  • Assist with onboarding and training of new team members

You have...

  • A Bachelor's degree in English, Journalism, or a Communications-related field
  • A passion for the culinary world, with a vast knowledge of techniques and ingredients—you find yourself reading cookbooks in your spare time and scouring social media for the latest culinary trends
