The role reports to the Consumer Editor.

  • Ability to write about complex subjects in an accessible way
  • Understanding of where to source money-saving stories that would benefit our readers
  • Solid understanding of SEO and social media
  • Comfortable working quickly and collaboratively as part of a fast-paced team
  • Able to thrive in a busy newsroom and “breaking news” environment
