Job Introduction

We’re looking for a sharp, dynamic, and culturally fluent Gaming Multimedia Journalist to help shape the next generation of video-first storytelling across the Daily Mail’s 150M-strong social ecosystem and our growing network of digital brands.

This is a hybrid role: part writer, part on-screen talent, part creative producer. You’ll pitch, script, and front stories that live across TikTok, Reels, YouTube, Snap, and beyond - from explainers and reviews to reaction content and breaking news.

You'll be at the heart of a new mission: to build high-quality, talent-led content that resonates with younger audiences and unlocks new commercial opportunities.

Main Responsibilities

• Front gaming content across short-form and long-form platforms (TikTok, Reels, YouTube, Snap), bringing personality, clarity, and journalistic edge
• Write punchy scripts and editorial copy for videos, social posts, newsletters, and occasional long reads
• Develop original formats, review series, or reaction content in collaboration with editors and producers
• Shape and own your gaming vertical - identifying trends, surfacing untold stories, and creating franchise-worthy formats
• Support branded content and commercial campaigns with premium, advertiser-friendly storytelling

Person Specification

• Strong on-camera presence with editorial instincts and a passion for gaming culture
• A sharp sense for what works on social - from headlines and hooks to platform pacing
• Demonstrated ability to write clearly and creatively for digital formats
• A clear niche in gaming you can own - whether that’s esports, streaming culture, AAA reviews, or indie gems
• Agile, collaborative mindset with the ability to work fast and adapt to trends

Our Commitment

We are committed to increasing diversity and maintaining an inclusive workplace culture. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates regardless of their age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race (which includes colour, nationality and ethnic or national origins), religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation.

We are Disability Confident Committed. Please let us know if you require any recruitment documentation in other formats or if you require reasonable adjustments to be made during the recruitment process. Please be assured that any such information will be held separately to your recruitment application and will not be considered as part of the selection process.
