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.
