    Job Title: Derry Girls TV Show critic for Meanwhile in Ireland       

    Employment: Short-term temporary contract

    Location: Worldwide (as long as you’re a Derry Girls fan)

    Job description – your role as a Derry Girls TV Show critic

    Job description

    Meanwhile in Ireland is on the lookout for a Derry Girls TV show critic on a short-term temporary contract.

    Reaching over half a million viewers each day, Meanwhile in Ireland covers everything from Irish pop culture and bizarre news to comedy, travel and satire.

    Launched in 2014, the platform has grown to become one of Ireland’s most popular platforms for viral videos, parodies, and general Irish craic.

    With a thriving team of Irish writers at its helm, this is an excellent opportunity for a budding critic to join a young and dynamic team.

    Working for an ever-growing media platform, the candidate will contribute to one of Ireland’s most popular websites on one of Ireland’s most beloved subjects: Derry Girls.

    Created by Derry woman and Freedom of the City Award winner Lisa McGee, Derry Girls follows the lives of four Derry teens and, of course, the wee English fella as they venture through their primitive years at Our Lady Immaculate College in Derry.

    The series first took to our screens in 2018 and ran for three incredible seasons, with the final season wrapping in 2022.

    The show is adored not only in Ireland but all across the globe. Iconic American director Martin Scorsese was even a fan.

    We are now on the lookout for a fan who knows Derry Girls inside and out to create a definitive ranking of the best Derry Girls episodes, analysing every single episode and putting them in order to create the ultimate guide.

    This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with previous experience as a critic or who wants to build their portfolio. The role will offer the candidate the chance to contribute to a leading media platform at an exciting stage in our growth.

    In addition to being offered a competitive rate of pay for the role, you will be required to work remotely.

    While this role is entirely flexible, this is a short-term temporary contract, and all research must be submitted within three weeks from the start date.

    • Partial to the craic (i.e. an understanding of Irish banter)
    • Must be 16 or older
    • Critic experience (preferable)

    Benefits:

    • Pay: €15/£ 13.25 per hour
    • This is a dream job; a once in a lifetime role which is short but unique
