Do you love cars and motorsport? Does the idea of publishing stories in front of a huge audience get you giddy with excitement? If the answer is yes to both then you’re in luck, because Goodwood Road & Racing needs a Digital Content Editor to join the team!

Goodwood’s audience is growing all the time, which is why we’re looking for someone enthusiastic to become part of the GRR ranks and manage the day-to-day running of the website.

As Digital Content Editor you’ll diarise, sub-edit and upload written content to GRR, everything from interviews to news and road tests, making sure it is of the right tone and quality. You’ll also be writing about Goodwood’s three headline motorsport events: the Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard, the Goodwood Revival and the Members’ Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport. Yes, that means you’ll be working behind the scenes at three of the biggest automotive events in the world. You’ll also be the point of contact for many of GRR’s freelance contributors as well as liaising with the video and social media teams to make sure our content is published and distributed swiftly and properly. As part of the digital content team you’ll also help to create new content ideas to help with the website’s continued growth.

We’re looking for someone with sub-editing and CMS experience, an understanding of SEO principles, plus a keen eye for detail. Some knowledge of Photoshop is preferable, and you need to be organised, driven and able to work well within a team. The successful candidate will almost certainly have previous experience of writing about motoring and motorsport, and will report directly to the Motoring Editor.

Why work at Goodwood? Aside from working at our big events you’ll be travelling to cover external events where required, and not only will you be part of a passionate GRR team you’ll form part of the wider Goodwood family – there really is nowhere else like it. Working at Goodwood also brings with it a number of other benefits, including the use of Goodwood’s gym, and a number of complimentary tickets to events so friends or family can get in on the action, too.

If it sounds like the perfect opportunity for you, get applying! The closing date for this role is Sunday 30th January 2022.
