Magazine/Web Reporter (Bloor & Ossington)
Do
you love writing and editing, meeting interesting people and
coordinating all types of editorial projects? We're looking for someone
to work this summer with big ideas and lots of energy. Shy desk fixtures
need not apply. Attitude is more important than aptitude, so if you've
got the personality, but need the experience, this is for you.
The position is full time, working out of our office in Toronto.
You
will be responsible for creating and assigning content and ensuring it
fits with our ideals for the web and magazine's vision, mandate and
editorial objective. You will ensure consistency of focus, tone and
content.
This role includes building
relationships with representatives from major industry associations and
attending conventions, trade shows and other events. You will also work
closely with our in-house production department and with advertising
sales representatives.
If you have a passion
for written communication, event planning or public speaking, along with
outstanding interpersonal skills, this could be the opportunity you've
been waiting for. Computer literacy such as Word and InDesign are
important, along with an excellent knowledge of the English language and
grammar. You must have a keen eye and a desire to make sure no mistake
goes uncorrected.
We offer a great working
environment and an excellent opportunity to gain experience. Part-time
or full-time work may be available after the summer.
