Journalist

As a Cable journalist you will not be tasked with churning out nine stories a day, generating surface-level content for clicks, which has become all too common for reporters. Instead, you will have the freedom to go in-depth on the stories you cover, to hone your craft and develop patches. You will get involved with innovative long-term projects, with editorial series, reader engagement and solutions journalism. We are looking for someone who is someone keen to pursue a career in local and investigative journalism. You will have a passion for public interest reporting, keen to get out into the city to find and tell human-driven stories. You will cover under-reported local issues to the highest standards of quality and accuracy, and be expected to build up local contacts and develop topic areas of expertise. Aside from journalism, you will be part of the Cable co-operative. We are run like a workers' co-op and make key strategic decisions as a team. You will be a member of a values-driven and purposeful team, with freedom to shape your work, evolve your role, and contribute to our strategy. You will be able to learn, share, and be supported by team members who you will be collaborating with.
