Junkee Media is an Australian digital media company that produces youth-focused news, culture, and lifestyle content through brands like Junkee and Punkee. Their head of editorial is seeking freelancers for both Junkee and Punkee mastheads, with assignments starting in April. They’re looking for the following for each brand:
- Punkee
“First-person, reported or opinion pieces on lifestyle (fashion, beauty, mental health, home + decor) from an identity perspective, with the data to back it up where needed. Punkee is how we perceive and understand ourselves, so that personal pov is essential.”
- Junkee
“Meaty reported pieces (that’s multiple sources/experts and weaving a narrative together) or zeitgeisty analysis (with evidence!) within the social justice/news/political space and through an Australian lens, but will consider the occasional pop culture (music, film, tv, gaming) pitch.”
Rates start at $300 AUD. If interested, send your pitches to sophie.hanson@junkeemedia.com. To read their head of editorial’s post, click here. To visit their website, click here.
