Description

Newsquest North and Mid Essex is seeking an ambitious and experienced journalist to take on a Chief Reporter role at the heart of our newsroom, with a clear focus on Mid Essex.

This is a hybrid role, combining high-quality reporting with news editing and newsroom leadership responsibilities. It would suit an accomplished reporter ready to step up, or someone with clear ambitions to progress into a newsdesk role.

Essex is one of the most diverse and rewarding local news patches in the country, spanning busy urban centres, coastal communities and rural villages. This role plays a vital part in ensuring our journalism remains authoritative, responsive, and community‑focused across both digital and print platforms.

As Chief Reporter, you will provide day-to-day editorial leadership while continuing to deliver standout journalism.

You will take ownership of the mid Essex newspapers and websites, helping shape content, tone and performance, while supporting wider newsroom output across north and mid Essex.

You will work closely with the newsdesk and editor to strengthen newsdesk resilience, including effective editorial cover during periods of absence.

A core part of the role is championing the effective use of AI tools, embedding them into workflows to improve productivity, insight and editorial decision‑making, while maintaining high standards of accuracy and responsibility.

Key Responsibilities

Take ownership of the mid Essex patch, driving confident, consistent editorial leadership
Act as the day‑to‑day lead for the websites, creating clear ownership and accountability for performance and quality
Combine reporting and newsdesk duties, including writing, editing and publishing content across digital and print
Deliver and edit high‑impact journalism, from breaking news and court reporting to investigations, features and campaigns
Strengthen print expertise within the newsroom, supporting the development of distinctive, high‑quality print products
Support and mentor reporters in the team
Provide newsdesk cover, as required
Use AI tools to support reporting, editing, production and audience insight, in line with newsroom standards
Use analytics and audience data to inform editorial decisions, story placement and presentation
Play an active role in newsroom planning meetings and contribute to wider editorial strategy

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

A strong track record and excellence in local news reporting
Clear ambition to progress into a News Editor or senior newsroom leadership role
A strong understanding of digital publishing, audience behaviour and performance metrics
Ability to edit reporters’ copy, and coach and mentor
Enthusiasm for using AI tools to improve efficiency, insight and output quality
Basic understanding of, and enthusiasm for, developing print expertise
Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities under pressure
Sound knowledge of media law, IPSO Code and responsible reporting standards
A collaborative mindset, with the ability to provide calm leadership in a fast‑paced newsroom

About you

You will be an experienced, motivated journalist who values community‑first journalism and thrives on responsibility. You are comfortable balancing hands‑on reporting with editorial oversight and supporting colleagues, while still looking ahead to the next stage of your career.

NCTJ qualification (including shorthand) is desirable. A driving licence and access to a car are preferred due to the geography of the patch. The role operates on a rota basis, including some early, late and weekend shifts, and combines in-office and on‑patch working.

Benefits

25 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off
Holiday buy scheme for extra flexibility
Structured career progression & ongoing training
Pension plan
Employee Helpline counselling and advice
Perks & discounts including:
- Gym membership
- Cycle to Work scheme
- Eye care
- Retail discounts
Team building days & annual volunteer charity day
