Is it time you applied for your dream job? 

If you’ve got a flair for writing, live and breathe social media, have a great handle on news and know your way about a camera and a microphone, we have just the job for you.

Her.ie is looking for a pretty fabulous content creator to join our team.

With a social media audience of well over 400,000 people, and 2 million unique visitors to the site every month, we’re thrilled with the reaction we’ve had from Irish women as we celebrate our third birthday this month, but we always want to be bigger and better, and that’s where you just might come in.

We currently have an opening for a staff writer. This position is office-based, at our Dublin HQ.

As a full-time journalist, you will work alongside our current dedicated team every day to bring our readers the news that interests them – be it health headlines, entertainment news, the latest in fashion and beauty, fun features or honest opinion pieces. This position is full-time, which means a forty-hour week split over five days, and hanging with us in our lovely offices. Applicants should also understand that the Internet is not Monday to Friday, nine to five, so neither are we! Our shifts run from early morning to late at night and across weekends. Don’t worry though – you’ll be rostered alongside a wonderful team of co-workers. So awesome, in fact, you may not want to go home.

(We’ve got beanbags. And lots of tea).
