Insider Trends are looking to grow their team of bloggers and researchers.

We’re a London-based trends company specialising in retail.

We deliver trend tours, talks and events to cutting-edge business clients of all shapes and sizes. We’re looking for writers to interview people are innovators in the retail sector. You can get an idea of the kind of thing we’re after by looking at our blog (insider-trends.com/blog). We would also like people to report on new retail openings in London.

Our fee is £20 per completed blog post, and we’d like to develop the role beyond blogging for the site. As a small company, there will be other paid opportunities to help us grow, such as contributing to trend reports or taking on additional research or office work.

If you are interested, please send your CV, along with links to any blogging or writing work you have done (it can be your personal blog) to frances@insider-trends.com. Please give us an idea of availability – whether you work 9-5 weekdays, are a student with x amount of hours available to give to us etc. Please also mention which areas of retail you are interested in/have knowledge of (we cover everything – design, sustainability, technology, packaging within all sectors of retail).

Finally, we’d like you to let us know an example of a brand/company/person who you think is doing something really interesting in retail that we should feature on the blog.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Closing date: Thursday 30 July (but we’d love it if you could send your application in earlier)
