Senior Writer (Lifestyle & Entertainment)

Why Work With Us?

We may not be the biggest media name out there, but we’re building something special - a digital newsroom that truly connects with young people in Myanmar.

What Makes Us Different?

We’re looking for people who want to make Myanmar media better, smarter, and more relevant to what young people care about. Here, you’ll find real opportunities to grow and learn. Yes, sometimes things won’t work out perfectly - but that’s how we learn. No fancy business talk here - just real chances to do meaningful work.

What Will You Do?

You’ll create content young people actually care about - food, entertainment, travel, and more. As a Writer or Senior Writer, you’ll make stories that catch people’s attention. Senior Writers will also guide other writers and work with our Editor to manage content.

  • Managing deadlines effectively
  • Covering events in interesting ways
