Job: Content Editor, Digital Media Startup on Global Energy Transition

I am the Editor-in-Chief of Kathari News, a digital media startup focused on the global energy transition. I am looking to hire a few recent graduates/emerging journalists on a part-time basis as Content Editors to help out with website production and audience growth as we develop into a 24/7 news operation. This would be a great opportunity for someone looking to learn more about the production side of digital journalism, including SEO and analytics. We are still a small team so they would get hands-on experience and mentorship as well as being encouraged to share their own ideas and empowered to experiment.The subject matter is fascinating, besides.

The details are at the link:

This would be great for a recent graduate or a current student looking for a position this summer. The job is entirely remote and can be based anywhere in the world. Please let me know if you would be able to post it on any internal job boards and otherwise share with your networks.

I should also let you know that I am looking for someone to fill the more senior role of Perspectives Editor and would appreciate you letting me know if any potential candidates come to mind: https://kathari.news/2024/04/15/journalism-job-perspectives-editor-kathari-news/
