The Digital Editorial team is at the beating heart of that operation and their job is to create and curate amazing experiences for our audience across a multitude of digital platforms. From interviewing celebrities to brainstorming ideas about the next binge-watch TV show, we’re looking for smart multimedia journalists who know how to communicate a story in a distinctive way that will engage and excite. Warning: there’s never a ‘slow news’ day at Global!

In a space where your content sits next to a friend’s amazing holiday photos, viral videos, memes and more, brands have to compete against someone’s entire life and have less than 0.3 seconds to get someone’s attention. It’s a fast moving world and the Social Media Team at Global are world class specialists in meeting the challenges of this new attention economy. Working closely with the Digital Editorial, Programming, Video and Commercial teams at Global, the Social Media Team specialise in creating and distributing market leading sharable content for audiences across all major and emerging social platforms.
