Now Media is an established B2B publishing house that offers a family-oriented environment, ongoing learning opportunities, and close engagement with industry leaders—including C-suite executives. We believe journalism matters, and we expect original, impactful work from our team.
We currently have job openings for journalists focusing on travel, tourism, and energy.

Key responsibilities:
- Sector-Specific research and reporting: Investigate current news, trends, and developments affecting your chosen sector (travel, tourism, or energy) within the B2B space.
- Interviewing: Conduct interviews with industry professionals, including C-suite executives, stakeholders, and thought leaders for firsthand insights.
- Writing and storytelling: Produce well-researched, compelling news stories and articles tailored to each publication’s audience.
- Data interpretation: Analyse industry reports and technical information to create accurate, insightful content that resonates with readers.
- Collaboration and teamwork: Work closely with editors and fellow writers to ensure the highest standards of journalism and editorial integrity.
- Meeting deadlines: Manage your workload effectively, delivering quality work on time in a fast-paced environment.
- Family Environment: Thrive in a supportive, close-knit team that values collaboration.
- Learning and growth: Gain deeper sector expertise and professional development through ongoing exposure to industry events and C- suite executives.
- Community impact: Your journalism can make a genuine difference—our publications serve an engaged professional audience.
- Travel opportunities: Explore new locations and gather on-the-ground perspectives for your stories.
- Established brand: Contribute to well-known B2B titles where journalism truly matters.
- Professional experience: Demonstrated journalism or writing experience, with a portfolio of published work. Previous exposure to travel, tourism, or energy topics is highly advantageous.
- Educational background: A degree in Journalism, English, Communications, or a related field is preferred.
- Excellent command of written English and strong editing abilities
- Ability to interpret data and industry reports for clear, engaging articles
- Confidence in networking and building industry contacts
- Strong organizational skills to handle multiple assignments simultaneously
- Self-motivation to produce original, high-quality reporting
- Practical requirements: A valid driver’s license and vehicle, as travel may be needed for events and interviews.
