  •  Build influential relationships across the newsroom to ensure our coverage captures the context of local developments and resonates globally and across all platforms
  •  Work with reporters to develop ideas, while bringing your own perspective to add depth and value
  •  Innovate with story formats while promoting diversity of thought and representation throughout our coverage

You’ll need to have:

  •  A minimum of 5 years of experience in business journalism
  •  Experience covering any asset class, or economy or the intersection of business and politics in a reporting, editing or research role
  •  Proficiency in both written and spoken English
  •  Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organisation
  •  Attention to detail and a big-picture outlook
  •  Experience working in a real-time news environment
