Bustle Digital Group (“BDG”) is seeking a Senior Fashion Editor to shape and lead fashion news and celebrity coverage as well as ideate and implement brand distinguishing initiatives, seasonal tent poles, weekly lineups, and out-of-the-box packages and issues.
The ideal candidate will have their finger on the pulse of what is happening across fashion, entertainment, current affairs, and culture through a well-established network of industry contacts and resources to obtain the most up-to-date information. To succeed in this role, the editor must have an intrinsic desire to always be the first-to-know and a voracious appetite for information, whether that be the most viral Tiktok trend, an emerging actress TZR should feature, the television show everyone is watching or talking about, or a new collaboration.
In addition to leading and editing news and celebrity coverage, this role requires ideating, assigning, editing, and/or writing about 4 to 5 fashion features a week, plus reviews and roundups during fashion week. They will also regularly pitch talent to feature in profiles, franchises, and original photography.
The editor will have an uncompromising standard for quality and well-reported stories, a sharp instinct to identify emerging topics, talent, and trends early on, and ensure that all coverage is consistent with the brand’s voice. It is crucial that the content is always evolving and not stagnant with overused headlines, language, or topics.
The ability to multi-task and pivot between short- and long-term projects is crucial to succeed in this role. In addition to effectively directing internal operations, the editor will be representing TZR at industry events and staying abreast of all industry news. They will serve as the channel for all things fashion related and ensure that TZR has a place at all major events. Nurturing relationships with brands and publicists is pivotal in this role.
