European Reporter

We are looking for a European reporter who wants to make a name for themselves. This is not a role where you will be stuck rewriting press releases. Your focus will be on meeting people and building a contact base in order to break news stories and write in-depth analysis for React News, the leading publication covering the commercial property market in continental Europe and the UK.

Some of our past scoops – including Amundi’s €4bn+ office disposal programme, Signa’s insolvency troubles and Blackstone’s pan-European logistics sales – show the range of the internationally significant stories we break. Property is an open and social industry that offers the successful candidate the chance to quickly build a contact base and establish themselves. The successful candidate will ideally be London-based or at least able to travel regularly into London to meet contacts. Our head office is in Mayfair and we have a satellite office in Manchester. We also have European reporters in France and Germany so there is a possibility to be based remotely.

Responsibilities

• Breaking exclusive stories on the real estate markets across Europe
• Establishing a contact base and regularly meeting senior industry figures
• Writing analysis pieces and interviews
• Overseeing the publication of React’s EU morning and afternoon bulletin once a week
• Attending industry conferences

• Min. 2-3 years of experience as a financial journalist
• Exceptional command of written English
• Ability to work a patch and break news
• Real estate knowledge/experience would be advantageous but is not a necessity
• Another European language, especially French, Spanish or Dutch, would be advantageous
• A collaborative mindset, keen to share in and celebrate the team’s successes
• A disciplined, controlled approach to tasks, with great work and admin habits
• A willingness to learn, adapt and take on instruction, with a positive attitude to personal development

Benefits for London-based employees

• Comprehensive benefits package including company provided medical, dental insurance and cash plan
• Company provided life assurance, critical illness and income protection coverage
• Personal pension plan with matched employer contributions
• Company paid holidays and summer half day Fridays
• Access to employee assistance programme and wellbeing resources
• Tax free cycle scheme and IT equipment
• Season ticket loan
• Company sponsorship to further education
• Flexible work arrangements
