As a Guides Writer, you will work closely with our Guides Editor Ollie, fellow Guides Writer Hayden, as well as the rest of the editorial team to create the best original PC games guides on the internet. You’ll get your hands on the latest releases and learn them inside and out, tearing them down to give readers everything they need to enjoy them to the fullest.

You can find all the details, including a full list of the job’s responsibilities, in theofficial job postingover on our sister site GamesIndustry.biz’s job board. You can also apply through theReedpop Careerspage, or our parent companyRX’s Careersportal if you prefer. All applications end up in the same place, so it doesn’t matter which one you use to apply.

This is a full-time, UK home-based role, with a yearly salary of £24,500.

When you apply,please include a CV AND a covering lettertelling us why you’d be the best person for the role. That covering letter is really important, as it’s not only a great way of introducing yourself, but it also gives us an idea of your individual writing style and whether you’d be a good fit for the site.

Ideally, you’ll have a portfolio showing existing guides work, but this is also an entry-level position, and you don’t need to have already been employed in such a role before. If your portfolio is filled with non-guides games writing from your own blog, that’s absolutely fine. A journalism or writing degree of some sort would also be great, but it isn’t essential either. We have a team of experienced writers and editors who will all work to train you in the role.
