Your impact:
Cosmopolitan is hiring an associate writer/editor to join our ''Flex Team.''

In other words, the Flex Team is Cosmo 's secret weapon-critical to our ability to maintain our status as the biggest young women's lifestyle brand in the world. (Yeah, that's a brag.) The associate editor will write and update stories across the lifestyle, style, beauty, entertainment, and sex & relationships verticals, deftly adapting to and implementing changes in SEO and e-commerce best practices.
The ideal candidate is someone with experience in an evolving digital environment, who truly enjoys writing stories across a variety of beats. The associate editor will report to the senior editor of the Flex Team.

Who you are:
• A clean writer with 2-3 years of digital experience, particularly across the lifestyle, beauty, style, entertainment, and sex & relationships beats
