This is a key role in shaping Dexerto’s entertainment output – and we want someone who’s just as obsessed with what’s happening on X, TikTok, YouTube, Twitch, and Instagram as they are with getting stories out fast and flawlessly.

Challenging ideas constructively and mentoring writers to improve quality
Bringing fresh, creative ideas to the table — we’re looking for someone who can think beyond the usual and help Dexerto reach new audiences
What We’re Looking For
Proven experience writing and editing entertainment or internet culture news
Strong knowledge of viral stories, content creators, celebrities, and social media platforms
Excellent news judgment, a flair for headlines, and the instinct to know what will go big
An eye for quality and the confidence to reject stories that don’t hit the mark
Creative thinking and the ability to pitch new formats and storytelling ideas
A personable, collaborative attitude – with the backbone to lead editorial standards
What You Won’t Be Doing
Covering politics, war, or serious current affairs — this role is all about fun, buzzworthy stories that entertain and inform
Why Join Dexerto?
Work with a fast-moving, passionate team that’s defining how digital entertainment is covered
Help shape the editorial voice of a leading entertainment and influencer-focused outlet
Remote flexibility with the opportunity to make a big impact on a global platform
How To Apply Please send us a covering letter explaining how your experience, skills, and knowledge make you the right fit for this role – along with your CV. We want to hear why you’re excited about Dexerto and how you’d help us grow our entertainment coverage.
