JOB OVERVIEW

We are a leading tech news publisher seeking two highly reliable and detail-obsessed Editorial Assistants to join our newsroom. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a journalism background or editorial experience who thrives in a fast-paced, accuracy-driven environment.

As an Editorial Assistant, you will play a key supporting role in our editorial operations, ensuring that content flows smoothly through our news production process each day. Your work will directly support our editors and reporters, helping maintain the high standards our readers expect.

Your tasks will include managing editorial workflows and daily publishing operations, assisting with news writing, fact-checking, and copy polishing, monitoring competitor coverage, and managing our Newsdesk system (email triage, spam marking, duplicate handling, approvals, etc.). You will also handle basic image editing and support our social media engagement efforts.

This is not a generic admin role. It requires a sharp editorial eye, outstanding written English, and a deep respect for accuracy and detail.

We are looking for someone who has:

* A journalism degree or experience in a newsroom, publication, or editorial role

* Flawless English writing and editing skills (of sub-editor quality)

* A keen eye for detail, grammar, and factual accuracy

* The ability to work independently, anticipate needs, and show initiative

* Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities under pressure

Hours are flexible but ideally 8am to 4:30pm Phillipines time.

To apply:

Write a short, thoughtful cover letter introducing yourself and explaining why you’d be an excellent fit for our newsroom.

*** Applications without a relevant cover letter will not be considered. ***
