Narcity Freelance Food & Travel Writer (Ottawa)
Narcity is a news media organization that produces quality journalism with a unique twist. While our publication has evolved significantly over the last ten years, our local focus remains at the heart of our editorial mission. Every topic we cover — from news to events, personal finance and restaurants — connects our readership to their community, city, region and country.
Our journalists are storytellers who aim to inform, entertain and inspire Narcity users with articles and videos that are both thoughtful and accessible. Regardless of the format – whether it's a news brief, travel listicle or opinion piece – our stories are designed to be creative and digestible, offering a unique perspective that stands out from the traditional media landscape.
Our goal is to make Narcity a space where creators can share everything from the latest news to their own lived experiences with readers from all walks of life. Our users choose our site and app for the diverse, exclusive and engaging content that's available for free by creating an account.
We are seeking storytellers with experience writing SEO-focused Eat & Drink , Things To Do and Travel content who are excited to create engaging and relatable stories for Narcity Ottawa.
The Contributing Writers should be able to cover everything from restaurant lists and fun activities to new places opening in or around Ottawa, publishing stories like these (for illustrative purposes only as they are not local to Ottawa):
We’re looking for writers with a strong network of sources in the food and travel sectors and a knack for finding unique local angles that will resonate with what our audiences (Gen Z, Millennials, and beyond) are searching for.
The writers should have a record of publishing original, exclusive, or timely stories while being equally passionate about producing evergreen, search-focused content. The selected creators will receive specific assignments, such as writing seasonal lists of things to do in Ottawa, but will also be expected to propose their own pitches, provided they cover new spots or local hidden gems that will interest Narcity readers.
Research and write SEO-focused food & travel articles that drive reader engagement and grow Narcity’s audience with compelling packaging
Consistently demonstrate a deep knowledge of what is happening and trending in your market by pitching exclusive content
Maintain a strong network of local sources in the food & travel industries
Deliver on Narcity’s voice and tone and respect SEO, brand and quality guidelines
Exceptional verbal and written English skills
Experience writing food & travel content for a digital publisher
An education in Journalism, Communications, or a related field is considered an asset
Knowledge of SEO best practice & experience optimizing content for search
Familiarity with various style guides, especially AP Style, an asset
This is a freelance position that will be compensated on a per-story basis depending on your experience, the article topic, length and amount of work involved. At least 3 food & travel local story ideas targeted towards Narcity Ottawa readers, including:
Links to your social media handles to help us get a sense of your voice & personality and willingness/ability to distribute content created for Narcity on your own personal channels (X, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.)
If your trial is successful, you’ll be fully onboarded as a Narcity Freelancer
Narcity Media is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to removing systemic barriers in the workplace and building a company that reflects the community that we serve at every level. We are devoted to building a company that is part of the solution and not the problem.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment at Narcity Media regardless of age, national origin, race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, socioeconomic status, or marital status.
