We’re hiring! IGN is hiring roles in all departments, but we (as editors) are especially excited about these jobs in the Editorial department:
Streaming Editor
We are looking for a streaming editor to lead our coverage of emerging and established streaming platforms in both the entertainment and gaming space, from Netflix and HBO Max to Twitch and YouTube. You’ll be covering a wide range of streaming topics, helping us identify and report on the industry trends, programming, and personalities that are driving conversation, as well as offering thoughtful follow-up commentary and analysis. You’ll also have the opportunity to contribute to our traditional movie, TV, and games coverage. More info and application here.
News Reporter, Editor – IGN’s news team is looking for a new content creator to help us not just research, write, and edit the stories we already specialize in, but share stories our readers and viewers haven’t yet discovered themselves. Based in either the UK or US, you’ll be working with the executive editor of news, the news team, and a pool of freelancers, you’d be reporting on day-to-day breaking stories (across gaming, movies, TV, tech, comics, and science) and pitching thoughtful follow-ups. Your work could span anything from investigative reports and op-eds to community deep-dives and video breakdowns. While you’d be based within the news team, your work will cross over with features, previews, and more – you’ll become a major part of not just how we tell stories, but how we create them. We have offices in both the UK (London) and the US (Los Angeles, San Francisco), so you will need to apply to whichever is nearest: More info and application (US). More info and application (UK).
