Weekend & Holiday Writer, The Strategist – $25 – $35/hour
The Strategist is New York Magazine’s site for rigorously reported service journalism that helps readers shop smartly. Its writers and editors surface the stuff that is actually worth buying, alongside all sorts of things you never knew you needed.
The Strategist is part of Vox Media, the leading modern media company. We guide our audience from discovery to obsession. We inspire essential conversations about what’s now, what’s next, and what’s possible.
As a community of journalists and storytellers, business professionals, creators and technologists, we believe it is a moral and business imperative to amplify voices: to cultivate diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout our organization and media. This applies to our candidates, our teams, our storytelling, our creative work, and our platforms, products, and partnerships.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
The weekend and holiday blogger will be on for mornings (10 a.m.-1 p.m) on Saturdays and Sundays most of the year, with evening hours and holidays added during key sales events (Prime Day, Black Friday/Cyber Monday, Thanksgiving, Memorial Day, Labor Day, others as needed).
This person will spend a majority of their time doing price and stock checks but will also be responsible for updating the homepage, and occasionally writing sales posts.
WHO YOU ARE
You are a detail-oriented and meticulous person who loves a good deal, and providing our loyal Strategist readers with the most up-to-date and relevant information.
If you think you have what it takes, but don’t meet every single point in our job posting, please apply with a cover letter to let us know how you believe you can bring your unique skills to the Vox Media team or get in touch! We’ve hired chefs who became editors, DJs who became UX designers, and sommeliers who became writers.
