We’re on the Lookout for Talented Writers to Join our Team. Could This Be You?

Mum Central, as one of Australia’s premiere parenting and lifestyle hubs, keeps parents up to date in the world of parenting and parenting advice, lifestyle, food, travel and more.

Our business has grown significantly over the last 12 months, especially when we take into account the the launch of our sister site Mum’s Pantry and the site where it all began Australian Baby Bargains. This means we’re on the lookout for a select number of superstar writers to join our team.

With a highly engaged Facebook community of over 700,000 mums, and hundreds of thousands of mums who visit each of our websites monthly, we’re focussed on delivering quality, timely and relevant content for our readers.

We love to deliver relevant, authentic and honest content for our readers together with digital campaigns for the brands wishing to connect with our readers. Together, we’d like to think we offer our readers a range of value packed stories, articles and opportunities to help them on their parenting journey.

With clients of all shapes and sizes, from local brands to global household names, we’re looking for experienced writers to join our team and focus on delivering regular articles and client specific content.

Our writers are required to create unique and authentic content for our audience of 20-50 year old women in a timely and efficient manner.  Working in conjunction with our advertising and content team, we’d expect that you’d be:

  • Confident in pitching original story ideas to our team
  • Sharing your take on key campaign concepts
  • Writing blog posts
  • Loading content into the backend of Wordpress
  • Drafting Facebook posts to introduce your articles to our readers

Ideally you:

  • Are passionate about social media and publishing
  • Can work both autonomously and within a team
  • Are a stickler for attention to detail
  • Have impeccable grammar
  • Have experience blogging/writing for magazines or websites, either your own or for a publication
  • Possess photo editing skills and experience
  • Are interested in women’s issues, parenting and lifestyle

If you’re looking for a work from home opportunity and can spare 5-10 hours per week in a freelance capacity, we can give you the flexibility to work around your family and your lifestyle. As long as you can consistently meet strict deadlines, we’re happy to work together to create a win/win for both of us!

If you love working in a flexible but creatively demanding work environment, have strong attention to detail, tight grammar and love to work to deadlines, then we’d love to hear from you!

Hours are flexible and quite frankly, if you’re delivering content our mums love to read then we’re all for increasing your content to suit!

To apply, please complete the form below in full including examples of your recent work on parenting or lifestyle media.

We hope to hear from you soon!
