FREELANCE FEATURES WRITER

Join to apply for the FREELANCE FEATURES WRITER role at Observer Media

Freelance Features Writer

Location : Remote (NYC-adjacent ideal, but not required)

Job Type : Freelance / Per-Assignment

Compensation : Competitive, story-based rates

Observer is expanding its freelance features roster. We're looking for sharp, original voices who can take a story apart and put it back together in a way that readers can't ignore.

You should be equally comfortable diving into an assignment and pitching your own stories. We want writers with taste, curiosity and the kind of antennae that pick up on ambition, absurdity and contradiction—especially when those things are disguised as success.

We cover power across business, art, culture, and lifestyle. That means you'll be just as likely to profile a rising art advisor or dissect the strategy behind a downtown hotel launch as you are to chronicle the reinvention of a tech mogul or the quiet coup inside a legacy media company.

You Should Have

• A strong background in reported features, essays, or profiles
• A distinctive voice that can cut without grandstanding
• A sense of narrative and a nose for the telling detail
• The ability to file clean copy on deadline—and take edits well
• A willingness to take assignments and deliver them with style
• The instinct to pitch timely, well-angled stories we didn't know we needed

We're Especially Interested In Writers Who

To apply, send clips (3–5), a brief introduction, and 2–3 original pitch ideas (1–2 sentences each) to hiring@observermedia.com with "Your Full Name + Freelance Features Writer" in the subject line. Please specify if you have subject area preferences or standout expertise.
