Trespass Magazine is on the hunt for a new Editor. As we approach our first birthday, and stare down the barrel of our second year, we’re looking for the perfect person to come on board and head up a small, global editorial team, and guide this vibrant webzine into its next phase.
The position requires minimum 12-15 hours of work a week, sometimes more, in order to effectively and efficiently generate content, build industry relationships, utilize social networking and promote the mag. Once the position of Editor has been filled, the Editor will work with Liv (Editor in Chief) to develop and structure a small, tight knit Editorial team. The position requires a familiarity with WordPress, however this isn’t strictly necessary as the program is easy to learn and simple to use.
It is perfect for someone really wanting to make their mark. Trespass Magazine has grown into a respected publication with writers from London, LA, Paris, Iceland, Bangladesh, Melbourne and Sydney, and readers from genuinely everywhere, from Germany and Sweden to Iran and India to Japan and Brazil to Greece and Russia. The editing skills you will perfect are invaluable, as are the relationships you will make with industry professionals.
This position is not restricted to Australia. The nature of an online publication, particularly one like Trespass where a large percentage of our contributors and readers hail from around the globe, means working with people in different countries is part of the job.

- Know Trespass back to front and inside out – the style, the tone, the ethos
- Have a passion for what you do and for what Trespass does
- Be creative, individual and have your own distinctive flair
- Have IDEAS
- Be a grammar aficionado
