Hoofddorp- Story is the first and leading weekly magazine in the Netherlands about showbiz, royalty and society. We are looking for an experienced editor for our editorial team in Hoofddorp at short notice.

As editor-in-chief, you define the editorial lines with the editor-in-chief and you are in charge of the day-to-day management of the team of permanent and freelance reporters, editors, designers and photographers. Within our editorial team, you are the pivot that stimulates, activates and coordinates a well-oiled team. You manage both the content calendar and the financial administration and maintain internal and external contacts. In his absence, you will act as editor-in-chief if necessary.

• Are you available on Mondays until 7:00 p.m.
