Nub News is now hiring a Copywriter, as part of our partnership with the Co-op.

In addition to announcing our new and improved Jobs Section for Macclesfield earlier this week, Nub News is also hiring.

As part of our ongoing partnership with the Co-op, Nub News is looking for a full-time copywriter to work with our talented team of journalists.

We are looking for a self-starter with good communication skills, great organisational qualities, punctuality and the ability to adapt and respond quickly to changing circumstances and deadlines and to work to a defined house style.

The job will come with the help and support of our hard-working journalists and the Co-op teams.

The main responsibilities for the Copywriter role includes:

  1. Edit and proofread the partnership articles, ensuring they meet the Co-op's tone of voice and brand guidelines.

  1. Write copy in the Co-op's tone of voice to be used in the partnership.

  1. Create and maintain a detailed content plan, adapting where needed if changes occur. Meet deadlines and ensure timely publishing of all articles.

  1. Liaise with the Co-op and their agency on a regular basis to deliver progress reports and request any extra information.

  1. Deliver regular briefings to the journalists, explaining the parameters of the articles and what is required of them. Answer any questions they have or contact the Co-op for more information.

  1. Track engagement metrics across all articles in detailed reports and provide weekly updates for Co-op.

  1. Check that all articles and social posts are correct once published, e.g. checking all links are working and relevant parties have been tagged.

  1. Assist with the creation of proposals for potential partnerships and co-ordinate their execution.

The post will be home-based – though will involve liaising with communities across the UK, establishing a rapport and understanding of the Co-op ethos and the community values it shares with Nub News.

If you are interested, please send your CV and a covering letter to [email protected].
