Manchester - Shift Pattern for up to Senior-Level Candidates

Founded in 2012, LADbible Group is redefining entertainment and news for a social generation. Our global community engages with our content–spanning editorial, video, documentary and live – we reach 1 billion people each and every month. Our mission is to give the youth generation a voice by building communities that laugh, think and act. Using all major platforms, we’ve rapidly risen to become one of the world's largest publishers.

About the Opportunity

With the ongoing growth of our Editorial Team - we're expanding our Journalist Network. We’re looking for talent across ALL levels, Junior to Senior and beyond, we want to hear from you.

You'll write fast turnaround articles across our brands (LADbible, UNILAD, SPORTbible, Tyla, GAMINGbible), covering breaking news, viral moments and pop culture for a global youth audience. You'll take sourcing and story leads (often flagged by Social Editors) and turn them into accurate, on-brand copy at speed

It's a fast-paced newsroom environment where no two days are the same, with constant opportunity to develop, pitch original ideas and lead on major editorial moments.

What we typically look for:

• Write accurate, engaging and informative content in line with tone of the brand
• Producing trending articles at speed and pitching original ideas and follow-up angles for the biggest stories across our brands
• Remaining proactive by researching and seeking the latest news, trends, and reports ahead of competitors.
• Tracking article success with sessions and engage time, using this to pitch follow-ups and improve your writing

The bar we set:

We're proud of the talent we've built at LADbible Group - and we're intentional about keeping that bar high. We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, hungry to grow, and raise the standard of everyone around them. Whatever the role, we look for the same core qualities:

• Ownership - you take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
• Pace - you move quickly, make decisions and learn from what happens next
• Audience obsession - you instinctively think about what our community wants
• Collaboration - you make teams better, share openly and leave ego at the door
• Curiosity - you're always learning: new platforms, formats, trends and tools, specifically AI.

At LADbible Group we've rolled out blended working which means the majority of departments across the business (including London, Manchester and International offices) work in the office 4 days per week.

LADbible Group is an equal opportunities employer. We are determined to create a diverse group at all levels of our company and we welcome all members of the community to apply for openings with us. As the leading social youth publisher, we have a powerful global platform to better represent our audience and enable those that do not have equal opportunities to have their voices heard. As a business, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce, in an environment where everyone feels comfortable to be themselves.
