FACT is looking for a full-time UK news poster. 

We’re looking for somebody who reads FACT regularly, and is already familiar with the website’s tone, structure, and what we would and wouldn’t cover. Candidates should have taste in music that covers a wide range of different scenes, styles and genres, and be as adept in covering Future and Andre 3000 as they are Fantastic Mr. Fox and Atom™. The role will be paid (and if you look like Atom™, above, we will pay you double).

Crucially, we’re looking for someone who’s hungry, and dedicated to covering news first and covering it well. Candidates should already consider themselves up on what’s going on in the world of music, and should be able to break stories based on what’s happening on social networks and pre-order lists as well as press releases in their inbox. We’re also looking for someone who’s keen to find out more on a story when it breaks – someone swift to get in touch with a story’s subject for quotes or more information.

Candidates should preferably have previous experience, but it’s not a deal-breaker; likewise, in an ideal world you’d be able to work from our London office but if the candidate’s right then we’re happy for them to work remotely. If you’re interested, get in touch at editorial@thevinylfactory – please title your email ‘UK news’.
