TGR is Hiring for a Digital Content Manager
Hey mags,
We're hiring for a Digital Content Manager to work alongside yours truly on the web & editorial team. Focused highly on the managerial side of the content game, less so on creative content production. Would be great to field a mag who also had a grasp on the forums, too. Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions before applying, as I have had a lot to do with creating the parameters for this role. Thanks and good luck!
