Kveller is Hiring an Editorial Assistant

–       Writing blog posts responding to relevant items in the news

–       Creating our semi-weekly e-newsletters

–       Promoting Kveller on social media networks (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest)

–       Providing assistance with daily operations

Desired skills:

–       Sharp editorial eye, proofreading skills, and ability to follow in-house style guide

–       Strong time management and organizational skills

–       Familiarity with social media a must

–       Efficient and engaging writer, with the ability to match Kveller’s current tone

–       Good visual eye for photos and artwork to accompany blog posts

Benefits include health, dental, and vision insurance. To apply for this position, please send a resume, writing sample, and cover letter including the website or Twitter feed you are most enjoying these days and why, to jobs@kveller.com with “Editorial Assistant” in the subject line.
