Business Insider UK is hiring a paid fellow to write about careers
We're looking for someone is insatiably curious about the psychology of success, how to get ahead in your career, how to build the perfect CV, the best-paying jobs in the UK and Europe, the management science behind companies like Google and Facebook, and the habits of rock-star businesspeople like Warren Buffett and Richard Branson.
BI Fellows spend their time researching, writing, pitching, and producing stories, and they get an author byline for every post they write.
You will be writing stories like: The email habits of Tim Cook, Bill Gates, and 16 other successful people; 15 skills that are hard to learn but will pay off forever; 11 interview questions from bosses like Elon Musk and Larry Ellison that seem to have nothing to do with the job.
The ideal candidate is ambitious, smart, funny, fast, and consumes huge amounts of digital media. You should be comfortable working on multiple stories per day and building your own audience and personal brand through social media.
When it comes to qualifications, a journalism background and experience writing for a news site always helps, as do copy-editing skills and light HTML and Photoshop experience. Knowledge of social media and previous writing experience are both useful, too.
Apply here with a CV, snappy cover letter, and a link to your LinkedIn profile, if this sounds like your dream job. Please specify why you are a good candidate for our strategy/careers section and include samples of your work.
Fellows are expected to work 40 hours per week for a 6-month period from the start date. Please note that this fellowship requires you to work in our London office.
