    Junior Social Media Editor - London, United Kingdom - The Independent

    Default job background
    Description


    Freelance Junior Social Media Editor, eCommerce About usThe Independent is an online news publisher that was established in 1986 as a national newspaper independent of party political affiliations or proprietorial influence.

    In 2016, The Independent became a fully digital publisher, moving away from print in pursuit of sustainability, and to safeguard its values and journalism for the future.

    The Independent has always thrived through innovation and change.

    It was the first British newspaper to add a Saturday magazine; the first to give photography the same prestige as a news copy; the first to challenge the Westminster lobby system of closed briefings; the first broadsheet to move to the more compact 'tabloid' format; the first to launch a concise quality compact paper; and the first – and only – major newspaper to pull off a successful transformation to fully digital publishing.

    Through The Independent, Independent TV, eCommerce, indy100, subscriptions and other 'reader revenues', The Independent plans to continue the work of many decades, bringing much-needed independent journalism to over 100 million unique global visitors a month, make its voice ever louder and more insistent the world over.

    We have an international editorial team with our main offices in London and New York.
    Diversity, Equality and InclusionWe champion diversity in our teams and in our reporting.

    As a growing and global brand, we must have a workforce that's more representative of our readers, viewers, clients and partners, and a workplace that creates a sense of belonging for everyone.

    We are committed to hiring and developing a diverse workforce regardless of background, and we support our people to thrive in their careers here.
