Founded in 2012, LADbible Group is redefining entertainment and news for a social generation. Our global community engages with our editorial, video, documentary, and live content, reaching over 1 billion people monthly.

Shifts and Scheduling

Our social editors at Tyla work on a shift basis to ensure continuous content coverage. Currently, we have an Early shift (07:45 - 16:15) and a Late shift (10:00 - 18:30), though these times may adjust slightly over time. At the start, the new hire would work standard hours (9:00 - 17:30) to become familiar with the role before moving into the shift rotation.
