Full job description

Join our team at the Guardian and be a part of a diverse and inclusive global organisation that delivers fearless, investigative journalism, and holds power to account. Our team of award-winning journalists, cutting-edge commercial professionals, and industry-leading digital experts are committed to making a difference and represent a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives. We offer a challenging and exciting environment for career development, with a focus on training, growth and fostering an inclusive culture.

We are looking for a reporter, Animals Farmed to report with objectivity on factory farming and animal welfare - from policies and conditions to humane solutions - for the upcoming Animals Farmed project.

This will suit someone who is interested in global food systems, industry processes and ethical issues who can bring an objective and journalistic lens to some of the issues affecting our relationship with the animals and fish we farm.

Animals Farmed is an upcoming project that is part of the Guardian's Foundations section – which includes internationally-themed projects covering a wide range of subject matter, such as Global development. It produces two newsletters and works in close partnership with other departments across the Guardian.

This is a 12-month fixed-term contract or internal staff secondment.

About the role

Source interviews and stories and develop ways of telling them in an engaging way
Monitor a range of sources and diaries for breaking/developing/upcoming stories
Work closely with colleagues – especially desk editors, data specialists and visual journalists - on collaborative projects
Keep colleagues informed of stories in development
Liaise with our social media team as part of the Guardian's commitment to open journalism and engagement of our audiences
Check all stories for accuracy and legal compliance.

About you

Demonstrable experience of working as a journalist, ideally on a newspaper, news website or magazine with an international outlook
A keen interest in, and preferably knowledge of, industrial farming, animal health and welfare and its impact on human well-being and diet
Knowledge/awareness of the demands of digital platforms and print
Proven experience of writing news
Experienced in effectively utilising social media and multimedia
Understanding of media law
Ideally, you'll have a demonstrable ability to bring a diverse perspective to this role.

We actively encourage applications from groups traditionally underrepresented in the UK media.

We operate in a hybrid environment working at least three days a week from our offices in King's Cross in London.

Job share applications are welcome. If you are keen to apply jointly with someone else as a job share, you should make a single application and combine your application documents.

The salary for this NUJ position starts from £41,223, with a package commensurate with the skills, level of experience and responsibilities of the position.

How to apply

To apply, please upload your latest CV and a cover letter which outlines why you'd love to take on this role, and why you're a great match for what we're looking for.

We appreciate the time taken to prepare each application we receive. We do not use AI-assisted technology to review applications; every application is reviewed by a member of our recruitment team. Thank you for bearing with us during the screening process.

All roles at the Guardian are open for everybody to apply. It is important to us that you feel supported and comfortable throughout your recruitment process, in order to perform your best. Please let us know if there are any changes we could make to help your application, this includes providing documents in accessible formats or personalising the process to better support your needs.

Benefits at the Guardian

You'll have six weeks of annual leave per year (plus bank holidays) with the option to purchase an additional 5 days. Our pension scheme is generous; if you contribute 5% then we will contribute 8-12% (depending on your age).

You are entitled to life cover, income protection, and eye tests. You can also opt in to dental insurance.

We have enhanced maternity, paternity, adoption and shared parental leave policies in place. We also support our employees by offering an IVF, menopause, baby loss, and trans equality policy.

Our canteen has views overlooking the Regents Canal and caters for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
