The Freelance Writing Network is hiring!
I’m looking for a freelance writer who is comfortable or has experience with video/webinar hosting, with a July start date most likely. Open to working with anyone, though experience in pitching/freelance journalism would definitely be preferred given what you’ll be doing.
Will pay £35-£50/hour, likely to be a handful of hours a week with the potential for a longer term collaboration. Fill out this form to be considered!
