This role requires at least three years of experience in journalism. It’s a job for a journalist who believes in their mission, loves the kind of reporting they do and is passionate about applying our brand of journalism to many more stories in the years ahead. They need someone who has a natural flair for writing — who will deliver the kind of stories readers look forward to when they open newsletters.
This role also requires the kind of person who relishes trying to get hold of people on the phone and enjoys chasing stories even if they seem like dead ends; who likes getting to grips with complex issues and can explain those issues clearly to readers.
You will be working closely alongside founding staff writer Abi Whistance, including sometimes collaborating on stories, and you will have a lot of contact with the editors and writers from the wider Mill Media team. You will also be expected to pitch in with various non-writing tasks, like helping with social media and liaising with freelancers.
How to apply
To apply for this role, email hiring@millmediaco.uk by Sunday 7 July at the latest, with an explanation (in the body of the email) about why you are interested in working with them and why you think you might be a good fit for this role.
Please also include a few links to some of your favourite work you’ve done and please attach your CV or link to your LinkedIn. Feel free to include story ideas you have that you would like to work on if you joined The Post.
