Careers at B Book Story

We welcome thoughtful pitches and introductions from people who care about culture, craft and the texture of contemporary city life.

Editorial desk with books, notes and a reading lamp

Good editorial work begins with attention: to ideas, to audiences and to the details that make a story worth returning to.

B Book Story welcomes enquiries about editorial positions, photography, internships, submissions and general business matters. We are interested in people with a clear point of view, careful reporting habits and a genuine connection to the cultural worlds we cover.

To introduce yourself or share relevant work, write to info@bbookstory.en-html.com.

Ways to contribute

01

Editorial

Writers and editors with strong cultural interests can send a concise introduction, relevant clips and a short account of the subjects they follow closely.

02

Photography

We welcome portfolios from photographers whose work brings a considered, observant visual language to people, places and creative practice.

03

Internships & enquiries

For internship interest, submissions or business enquiries, send a brief note that explains your focus and includes the most useful supporting material.

Our process

How we review notes

We value a clear, well-prepared introduction over a lengthy application. A little context helps us understand how your work might fit the editorial.

01

Introduce your work

Tell us what you do, what you are interested in and why B Book Story is a relevant place for your ideas.

02

Share selected material

Include a few relevant links, examples or a portfolio rather than an exhaustive collection.

03

Give us context

For a submission or pitch, explain the story’s angle, its cultural context and its likely audience.

04

Keep it concise

Our small editorial team reads introductions carefully and responds when there is a suitable next step.

Before you write

Make your note useful.

A clear subject line and a concise introduction make it easier for the editorial team to understand your enquiry and locate your work.

  • Your name and the kind of contribution you are proposing
  • Two or three carefully selected examples of relevant work
  • A short description of your editorial, photographic or professional focus
  • For pitches, a proposed angle rather than a completed article
