About

Jennifer Savin headshot 1

Jennifer Savin is an award-winning journalist and editor, having been named as one of the PPA New Talent’s 30 Under 30 and making the MHP’s 30 To Watch List. She also took home the award for Best Print Feature Idea at the BSME Awards 2018.

She has worked at Cosmopolitan, the UK’s number one glossy magazine, since 2015, progressing from the role of intern to her current position of esteemed Features Editor. Her work has additionally been published in Women’s Health, Marie Claire, The Times and The Independent, and she has appeared on panels across the country discussing everything from how to kickstart a career in the media to responsible reporting on body image.

Alongside writing first-person pieces, Jennifer has a particular passion for investigative journalism – something that has found her in all manner of unusual situations, from sharing a tiny bedroom with a stranger for 10 days whilst reporting on the housing crisis, to exposing the ‘landlords’ offering accommodation in exchange for sex. Her lighter-hearted pieces include spending two months dating only men named Daniel (for deeply scientific purposes, of course) and an exploration of the life lessons she learnt whilst living with drag queens in Brighton.

As well as her successful journalism career, Jennifer is an author (her debut novel, The Wrong Move, was published in 2020), women’s rights campaigner and documentary consultant, most recently working on – and appearing in – BBC Three’s ‘Deepfake Porn: Could You Be Next?’.
