Economics Journalist

London, United Kingdom TVZ Full time



Job Vacancy:  Economics Journalist - AFP
Location:  London, UK
Closing Date: 14th July 2024
AFP is looking for a dynamic and enterprising English-language journalist to join the economics team in its bustling London bureau, which covers the UK and Ireland.

Led by the economics coordinator, the team is comprised of four Francophone and two Anglophone reporters who cover the UK economy, government policies, a wide range of companies, financial markets and the Bank of England.

You must be able to break through the jargon to tell readers the story behind the numbers. The job involves writing a daily stock market wrap, quarterly company results, central bank interest rate decisions and macroeconomic data such as GDP and inflation.

You will also be armed with ideas for features and sidebars, with opportunities to get out of the office to report on a country that is still dealing with the fallout from Brexit, adapting to climate change and facing a seismic political shift. You will look for stories that are visually compelling, so that they can be accompanied by video, photos and graphics to illustrate how people in Britain, or beyond, are impacted by business decisions or economic policies.

The economic weight of this G7 country, the global reach of its companies and the influence of its City financial district make the London office one of the most important for AFP’s economic and business coverage. This is even more true since Brexit and the spotlight will shine even brighter after the July 4 general election, which will likely herald a new direction for the country’s economy.

Excellent writing skills, accuracy and attention to detail are required, along with strong news judgment. You must be able to react quickly to breaking developments, synthesize complex economic issues, put them in a broader global context and explain why they are important while making them accessible to a global audience. Premium is placed on concise and snappy articles. You will also have to translate stories from French from time to time.

Grace under pressure is essential, as you will often juggle multiple storylines while responding to breaking news. You must be a team player, flexible and collegial in an office where you will be working closely with your Francophone economic colleagues as well as text, video and photojournalists from the general news side.
