Are you obsessed with the latest gadgets? Do you know how to shop smart for consumer technology and get the most for your money? Can you show our readers how to avoid the pitfalls and get the best gear without breaking the bank?
Can you also write convincingly about other consumer lifestyle topics when required, such as home and garden, food and drink or travel?
If that sounds like you and you are able to channel that passion into lean, elegant copy then we want to hear from you.
This is a great opportunity for aspiring online journalists and copywriters to build a portfolio while earning a regular income at the same time.

We’re looking for people with:
- Genuine passion for and extensive knowledge of consumer technology.
- Comfortable writing on other consumer lifestyle topics when required.
- Shopping savvy and a nose for a bargain.
- Strong and versatile writing competence, who are just as comfortable crafting short, sharp blog posts as longer in-depth guides.
- Computer skills, who are able to quickly master a new content management system and publish their own work.
- Experience writing copy and content for consumer focused websites is a bonus.
- An eye for detail and commitment to quality.
- Interest in general online retail a bonus.
