The Role

At Simply.TV, we believe that great metadata is what separates a good TV experience from a world-class one. As a Program Synopsis Writer, you'll play a hands-on role in making that happen — researching and writing program descriptions, proofreading for accuracy and consistency, and maintaining our ever-growing content database to the highest editorial standards. You'll collaborate closely with a team that cares deeply about quality, move fast without cutting corners, and take real ownership of the data you deliver. If you're detail-obsessed, love the world of TV and streaming, and want your work to reach millions of viewers through the operators we serve — you'll feel right at home here.

Requirements

You are successful when:

• You have researched missing television program synopses using broadcaster and official source materials, ensuring full understanding of content requirements.
• You have reviewed, proofread, and edited synopsis content to ensure accuracy in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and US English standards.
• You have verified all program descriptions for factual correctness, completeness, and editorial consistency before entry.
• You have created, updated, and entered synopsis records into internal systems.
• You have identified gaps, inconsistencies, and duplicates in program metadata and resolved them through research and correction.

• The data delivered is accurate, complete, consistent, and error-free, meeting quality standards and deadlines.

Please note that training will be provided on US English editorial and language standards.

Qualifications

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• Have a university degree in a relevant area, e.g. English, Journalism, Mass Communication, Business, Data, or a related field.
• Have excellent proofreading and editing skills with strong attention to detail
• Work very structured, and are so detail oriented that you can spot errors from a mile away
• Love working at a fast pace
