Job Description

At Hearst UK, there’s always more to the story. Join us as our Deputy Features Editor to start the next chapter in your career.

We’re the UK’s leading premium publisher, and the people behind iconic media brands such as Cosmopolitan, Esquire, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar and Country Living. We’ve created a working environment that encourages everyone to pull together. We never stop looking for brave new ideas. We’ll always try to develop and improve, we trust each other to do our best, and we have fun as we build on our heritage to make history.

The Lifestyle Group operates as a hub, so you will be working across three of Hearst’s top selling monthly titles – Good Housekeeping, Red and Prima. You will report to each title’s Features Director.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As deputy features editor you’ll work across the lifestyle hub of Good Housekeeping, Red and Prima as a senior member of the features team, generating original and brand-appropriate ideas for each title. As well as commissioning and editing features, you will write for all three brands, turning your hand to everything from compelling real life stories to engaging celebrity profiles to trend-led features/ lifestyle features. Deputising for the three features directors as required, you’ll be confident to step up to ensure things run smoothly in their absence.

ABOUT YOU

We’re looking for an experienced, creative, adaptable professional who is as comfortable interviewing and writing as they are editing copy for three very different brands. An understanding of what excites our readers is essential, as is an ability to generate brilliant ideas on a monthly basis. You’ll be super-organised, excellent at time management and juggling schedules, and a great all rounder who enjoys working as part of a dynamic team.

WHAT WE OFFER

At Hearst UK, you can choose from a huge range of perks and benefits that can help you learn well, work well and live well including:

  • 25 days’ holiday (with the option to buy up to 5 additional holiday days)
  • Hybrid working – currently two days per week in the office, moving to three in September
  • Discounted gym membership
  • Healthcare cash plan
  • Spend a charity day with your favourite good cause
  • Life assurance and pension scheme
  • Regular socials and more!


There’s more to your story than you imagine. And the next chapter begins right here.

Hearst UK is deeply committed to using our influential brands to reflect the world we want to live in – one that respects, protects, represents and uplifts the voices and opinions of all people. As a business, we recognise the significant benefits of creativity, collaboration and innovation that comes with diverse teams. Not only is diversifying the voices in our organisation the right thing to do, but it also helps us to make powerful and exciting content that can be enjoyed by many more people. This is why we’re working to build a sense of true belonging within our business and foster a culture in which everyone feels heard.
