Content Writer - Entertainment Brand

Role overview

RedCat Digital is hiring a skilled Content Writer to support a well-known global entertainment and consumer brand in Central London. The role is focused on producing engaging editorial work for a high-traffic, fan-oriented digital platform.

This is a great fit for a creative writer with strong editorial judgement, experience in digital publishing, and an interest in crafting content that improves audience engagement. You will work across a mix of content types and collaborate with teams from marketing, social media, CRM, and digital publishing to help deliver campaigns and business goals.

What you will do

You will help plan, write, publish, and improve editorial content while using audience data and performance insights to guide decisions. The role combines storytelling, optimisation, and cross-team coordination.

• Support monthly content planning by suggesting ideas informed by audience behaviour, performance trends, seasonal opportunities, and marketing activity.
• Create compelling long-form features, news pieces, quizzes, and other audience-led editorial formats.
• Review and refresh existing articles, spotting opportunities to update and re-promote strong-performing content.
• Share ideas for fresh formats and editorial approaches shaped by cultural and digital trends.
• Build, upload, and manage content in a CMS while maintaining accuracy and on-time delivery.
• Choose approved images and multimedia assets to support articles and other content.
• Keep publishing records up to date and manage workflows in Airtable.
• Assist with content approvals and work with internal teams to meet editorial and legal standards.
• Track content results and pass on insights that can improve future planning.
• Partner with Social Media and CRM teams to ensure content plans support broader audience reach.
• From time to time, contribute to event coverage, interviews, and live content production.

Experience and skills

The ideal candidate will have at least 5 years of experience in editorial, content writing, digital publishing, or a closely related discipline. You should be confident writing for consumer audiences and able to combine creativity with structured editorial thinking.

Strong writing, editing, and storytelling ability is essential, along with hands-on experience using CMS tools for publishing. You should also be comfortable working with Airtable and Microsoft Office, and familiar with Adobe Creative Cloud applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Acrobat.

You will need to manage several priorities at once, maintain a high level of accuracy, and adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment. Experience using audience data and analytics to shape content decisions is important, and familiarity with fan communities, entertainment, publishing, lifestyle, or pop culture content would be a strong advantage.
