This week, Nub News is looking for a copywriter.

Here are the details:

"As part of its 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 journalists and the Co-op teams.

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.

Main responsibilities:

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

We would like to hear from you.

Nub News is continuing its innovative, industry-changing development, bringing top quality local journalism back to towns and communities across the UK.

We have already launched 65 online local newspapers and employed a team of more than 35 journalists."
