Writer

About the role:

The Newsette is searching for a full-time writer to join our team. We’re a next-gen media company and creative agency that empowers, motivates, and informs women every morning. Our mission is to make women across the globe feel more powerful every single day with engaging and digestible content. We’re working on some first-of-their-kind projects with the world's biggest brands that are going to surprise and delight a bunch of people. And that’s where you come in. While our company HQ is in New York City, all employees are working remotely until further notice and being based in New York is not a requirement for this position.

What you'll do:

• Aggregating and creating valuable daily content for our audiences
• Planning and writing culture, lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and similar content, while also providing analysis/key learnings
• Helping to craft and shape our editorial voice, ensuring we’re always staying mission-focused
• Managing editorial calendars and related processes
• Co-leading new editorial projects and franchises
• Supporting branded content initiatives

About you:

You’re a resourceful and witty writer. You're a dreamer. And a curious and organized self-starter. You believe in our mission, have fresh ideas, and are excited to implement them on a nimble platform. You love collaborating with a team but are also focused enough to lead the charge on your own. You want to work in a growing start-up environment and help build something huge with us. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about storytelling, but who also understands how the business of media affects content creation.

• Ability to write in The Newsette’s cheeky and engaging voice/style
• Proven interest in our mission and an understanding of the importance of inclusivity and authenticity
• At least 2 years of professional writing experience
• Knack for sourcing great stories and drawing your own conclusions about them
• Track record of managing projects and strict deadlines
