Digital Motors Editor – The Sun
The Sun's digital team is growing, and we want the most talented and committed digital journalists to join us.
We are looking for a Motors Editor to head up our online offering. The role starts as standalone but may later develop into a team.
The successful candidate will:
• Have proven experience creating popular digital motors content.
• Generate a daily list of quality editorial ideas which will get strong, engaged traffic for thesun.co.uk and across our social platforms.
• Have the necessary drive and journalistic skills to execute those ideas and turn them into great copy which readers will enjoy.
• Have awareness of and passion for the commercial opportunities in digital Motors content – and ideally have strong contacts in this world.
• Have experience of using analytics to drive greater and greater traffic by learning what works best.
• Keep on top of motors trends and spot emerging trends to best enhance your contribution.
• Have excellent writing skills, honed through previous experience.
• Have a strong news sense and be able to respond to the big stories of the day with a spin unique to your specialism.
• Have a thorough knowledge of the IPSO Code of Conduct, media law and ethical considerations.
• Being a self-starter is key – and you will need to thrive under the pressure of a busy newsroom.
• Willingness to work flexible hours over a seven-day rota pattern.
