About the Role
We’re looking for a highly motivated News & Global Affairs Copywriter to help us create short-form content that our team will record and publish on a frequent basis. This role is ideal for a candidate with a strong experience in journalism, global affairs, political science, international relations, economics, or media—and who thrives on moving fast when news breaks.
Your job: track current events in real time and turn them into clear, concise, and compelling copy—often same-day.
If you’re the kind of person who refreshes multiple news sites before breakfast, you’ll feel right at home.
Key Responsibilities
- Monitor breaking news and developing global stories across politics, economics, geopolitics, tech, and culture
- Write concise, accurate, and engaging scripts/outlines
- Summarize complex stories into clear, digestible talking points without losing nuance
- Flag important developments and suggest story ideas proactively
- Revise copy quickly based on editorial feedback (speed matters)
- Maintain a neutral, factual tone aligned with journalistic standards
How to Apply
- A brief cover note explaining your interest in current events and this role
- 1–3 writing samples (published articles, essays, or news summaries are ideal)
