Looking for a job where you can write your heart out, expand our community and get paid for being active on social media? You can still use your human instincts in the digital age, by hunting for virals and collecting them to share with your online crowd. Therefore, we are looking for an editor who mainly gets it on between the sheets with his or her smartphone. Someone with writing skills, who is social media savvy and occasionally will think ‘I am sooooo blogging about this’. You will be responsible for the content of The Best Social Media and become the new caption captain of our English-oriented platform.
Company description
The Best Social Media is the new English version of the successful Dutch and German platforms De Beste Social Media and Das Beste Aus Social Media. We curate the best, most remarkable and viral content on social media and write and post about it. We travel the world wide web like Dora the Internet Explorer, as a digital compass in the online chaos. So when Trump spills his cup of covfefe on Twitter, you’ll be the first to notice it, write it and post it. Or when someone has a viral complaint because Starbucks has been a lactose-liar, while the customer’s pants are on fire, that’s also where you come in.
Furthermore, both our Dutch and German platforms attract a broad social savvy audience between 18-40 and each reach more than 2 million people weekly. We are growing fast, publishing more than 120 blogs monthly. We now wanna start building the English version and make it big! Given the fact that you will write and deal with English content, increases the possibilities of growth and reach to be sky high.
