We’re looking for
- Clear, compelling writing and an interest in storytelling
- Knowledge of the political, cultural or social landscape in the US or Canada
- An interest in LGBTQ+ issues, communities and media
- The ability to work independently and meet agreed deadlines
- Previous writing or journalism experience is helpful but not required
What you’ll get
- Published work with a long-running international LGBTQ+ outlet
- Editorial guidance and constructive feedback
- Portfolio and byline development
