We’re the UK’s leading premium publisher, and the people behind iconic media brands such as Cosmopolitan, Esquire, ELLE, Harper’s Bazaar and Country Living. We’ve created a working environment that encourages everyone to pull together. We never stop looking for brave new ideas. We’ll always try to develop and improve, we trust each other to do our best, and we have fun as we build on our heritage to make history.

The Role

ELLE is the world’s largest fashion media brand, reaching millions across digital, social, print and events. As ELLE UK celebrates its 40th anniversary, we are evolving and expanding our digital-first fashion coverage to deepen our brand authority and embrace the future.

In this role, you’ll steer ELLE UK’s digital fashion output – writing, commissioning and editing across all platforms, from fast-moving fashion news to long-form features and shopping edits. You’ll take the lead on major cultural and fashion moments, use data to grow traffic and engagement, and collaborate with print, social, video and e-commerce teams to deliver brilliant storytelling. Along the way, you’ll represent ELLE at industry events, build strong relationships, and play a part in print and reader experiences – all while keeping deadlines on track and ensuring ELLE’s unique voice shines through.

Main Duties

• Write, commission and edit articles across all ELLE digital touchpoints – from fast-moving fashion news and agenda-setting long reads to thoughtful analysis and curated shopping edits – while ensuring ELLE’s unique voice and fashion authority shine through.
• Drive ELLEUK.COM’s daily fashion output, monitoring data and insights to grow traffic, engagement and conversion, and ensuring all deadlines are met.
• Lead digital fashion coverage around key cultural moments (including awards season, the ELLE Style Awards, the Met Gala, etc) and contribute to magazine content when required.
• Collaborate with print, social, video and e-commerce teams to deliver engaging cross-platform storytelling.
• Represent ELLE as a brand ambassador at PR, commercial, fashion and reader-facing events (including ELLE COLLECTIVE), building and maintaining strong industry relationships.
• Attend editorial and production meetings, manage commissioning forms, invoicing and other administrative tasks for the fashion category.
• Stay on top of competitor activity, new ideas and wider industry trends to inform ELLE’s fashion strategy.

What We Are Looking For

• Strong fashion editorial background with experience at a leading fashion or digital-first title, with excellent writing, editing and headline skills and a sharp eye for compelling copy.
• Proven ability to translate data into strategy, combined with strong fashion knowledge, industry contacts and excellent cultural awareness.
• Skilled at interviewing and finding case histories, with meticulous organisation, time management and the ability to stay calm under pressure and tight deadlines.
• Excellent interpersonal skills, able to use initiative, build relationships and work collaboratively.
• A genuine passion for ELLE’s subject matter and a clear understanding of its readership.
