What we’re looking for: Knowing and loving the dressage world is essential for this job — ideally, you will have competed in dressage or been closely involved in the sport in another way. You will have good knowledge of how dressage works nationally in Britain and internationally, the main personalities, and the issues in the sport. Strong English language skills are also needed — candidates must have the ability to write sparkling, flowing features and reports, with correct spelling and grammar, and to edit and improve other writers’ copy. The successful applicant will also have good organisational skills and be IT literate in order to run a busy section on a fast-paced, weekly magazine, while juggling this with working on our website and social media. An interest in sport horse breeding and equestrian kit is required – in-depth knowledge in these areas would be an advantage but is not essential. Our ideal candidate would have experience working on a print publication or online (not necessarily in the equestrian field), but we are happy to consider applications from people without this experience, if you fulfil the other criteria and show the right attitude and willingness to learn. Knowledge of InDesign and WordPress CMS would be an advantage but is not essential. This is a full-time role working from home, with occasional required visits to our Paddington, Bath, or Winnersh Triangle offices.
