Commissioning Editor

Sifted is an award-winning new media platform, backed by the Financial Times, reporting on the world of technology and startups in Europe. Four years after launching, our high-quality journalism is a must-read for many founders, investors and people working in startups across the continent. We are friendly, hard-working and passionate about what we do. We have a flat structure, collaborate across disciplines and everyone has an impact across many areas of the business. We value feedback, honesty and clear communication. Reporting to our deputy editor Eleanor, it will be your mission to whip into shape articles that come in from our network of 15 staff and freelance reporters across Europe as well as commission (and occasionally write) articles on some of the biggest issues of the day. You will also be responsible for managing our opinion section and ensuring a steady stream of articles reflecting ongoing debates (while fending off the millions of promo-content-marketing pieces we get pitched every second).
