  • Break Big News & Cultivate Sources: Master high-stakes reporting and build a powerful, high-level network of global contacts.
  • Drive Audience & Platform Strategy: Harness data insights to captivate audiences and expand our reach worldwide.
  • Craft Unmissable Narratives: Transform complex geopolitics and economics into sharp, compelling and readable stories.
  • Lead Visual & Data Journalism: Combine rich data and dynamic graphics to bring investigative visual stories to life.
  • Publish Cross-Platform Content: Produce vibrant multimedia storytelling designed to engage modern digital readers.


What you bring:
  • Exceptional writing under pressure, data-reporting experience and fluency in web analytics.
  • An insatiable curiosity for breaking news, global affairs and evolving digital landscapes.
  • A clear, demonstrated passion for reporting on key developments in China or Europe.
  • Fluency in English along with working proficiency in a second language.
  • Eagerness to cover fast-moving news across flexible shifts, including nights, weekends and holidays.
  • Unrestricted authorization to work in the U.K. or Singapore.
