GayNZ_com Vacancy

Vacancy: GayNZ.com news and features writer/supervisor

(salary and terms negotiable)

If you're passionate about writing for and about New Zealand's glbt communities this will be the perfect job for you.

But working at NZ's most used and award winning glbt lifestyle website will be more than just a job.

The 'scene'
You will be eager to maintain close connections with the people and organisations who create events and facilities for glbt people. You will gain satisfaction from seeing glbt people's lives and lifestyles reflected on the internet and associated digital media. And you will want to see problems aired and solutions celebrated.

The media
You will be a committed user of social networking and other digital and new media, able to utilise it as a means of communication to and from the GayNZ.com news and features operation.

The voices
You will seek out and find a variety of voices from within our glbt communities, encouraging and assisting them to produce their own material, whether it be images, writing or informal opinions and observations and seing it presented through GayNZ.com.

You will be ably supported by a small team of equally committed volunteers, including New Zealand's most experienced glbt media editor.

The position is likely to be Auckland-based and 'work from home' and would suit one person with all the above interests who is self-motivated and writes to a high standard. However, we would consider splitting the position between two or even three part-timers with skills in each of the above areas.

Applications close 5pm Monday 15 March.

Enquiries should, in the first instance, be directed to: jay@gaynz.com
