We're looking to expand our team of writers, to better explain the unfolding news events to our audience.

What we're looking for:

Applicants should have a university level degree in either politics, economics or a relevant field of study and should be able to demonstrate relevant experience.

The successful applicant will be expected to pitch new video topics and write scripts for our EU and Global news YouTube channels, and as such will need to work efficiently and independently.

Ideally, applicants would be comfortable to appear on camera to discuss their videos and other topics on panel-style discussion episodes and our podcast. There is also a potential for applicants to take on hosting responsibilities - although this isn't necessary.

This is a full time role, with the successful applicant expected to work 40 hours a week. We operate under hybrid working model, the employee will expected to work in our office in central London at least three days a week.

We are particularly keen to receive a wide range of applications from people with diverse social, national, ethnic, gender and other backgrounds because lived experience and personal understanding of certain topics can be invaluable in the work we do.

The successful applicant will be offered a salary between £35,000 and £45,000 (depending on experience).
