Internship for English Speakers: Paid 6 months Internship at Mumsnet Book Club (London, United Kingdom)

Deadline: Ongoing

Job Purpose: To write daily entertainment news articles and features and support the editorial team.

Main Tasks and Responsibilities:
Writing several news articles and features on a daily basis.
Attending entertainment events as a representative of Sugarscape.com.
Contributing to the overall running of the site, including social media.

Person Specification:
The candidate must have completed at least one work experience placement at an online title, although this does not specifically have to have been one based around entertainment news.
Candidate should be bright, enthusiastic and willing to go the extra mile to make Sugarscape the best it can be – whether this involves attending industry events outside of work hours, or working morning and evening shifts for the site (which are paid on a p/h basis in addition to contract salary).
A strong knowledge of digital media is essential, including social media, SEO and the difference between writing for online as opposed to print.
Candidate should have a basic knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and iMovie, as some picture and video editing is required.
Should also be confident enough to interview celebrities solo, and be bursting with original features ideas.
This is a full on role – no making tea required – candidate will be an essential member of the team and therefore need to be willing to hit the ground running from day 1.
Ideal opportunity for a graduate or equivalent.

To apply, please send a copy of your CV along with 2 news stories written in the Sugarscape style, and a list of 3 features ideas for the site.
