What is the future of work? The Globe and Mail is hiring a reporter who will address this issue as a member of our expanding Report on Business team.
This is a wide-ranging beat that will examine how we work, where we work, and what kinds of jobs we’ll take on, both now and in the months and years to come. The successful candidate will also have the skill and experience required to look at the issue of work in a broader sense, considering how economic shifts – along with the ongoing pandemic – affect labor supply, mobility, and participation. The ability to write both news hits and structured longform features is a must.
Are governments supporting the education of a new workforce? What are the continuing impacts of AI, which has already made some jobs redundant, as well as robotics, which will replace others altogether? This role requires an enterprising journalist, with a minimum of three years of newsroom or other journalistic experience, who can identify trends through their attention to the news, as well as through deft data analysis, and an understanding of public policy.
