We’re hiring a writer who can make the world’s largest problems understandable to our large Our World in Data audience.SummarySummary
Contract type: Full-time, flexible hours. We are open to a part-time arrangement for the right candidate, but full-time is strongly preferred.
Compensation: £80,000 to £120,000 per year, based on experience and location.
Location: Our offices are in Oxford, United Kingdom, but many people in our team work remotely. We welcome applications from international candidates, though working hours should partly overlap with core UK working hours to facilitate collaboration with the team. Visa sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate, depending on individual circumstances and relocation preference.
Description: We are looking for an experienced writer. The ideal candidate already writes single-authored pieces regularly and publicly for a non-specialist audience, builds arguments based on data and research, and has the range to cover many of the topics we work on. This is a senior role: the person we hire will work closely with Hannah Ritchie, our Deputy Editor. The hiring process involves a paid writing residency before any full-time offer.

80k to 120k pounds per year seems pretty good for a writing job!
It’s not for just any writer! You gotta have a background in a lot of stuff.
True. The job actually sounds pretty attractive to me! But I don't want to lose my independence and flexibility. You just know that for this org, you gotta take the normie mainstream TPTB view on things.
Whoever gets this job, you can't tell me that journalists these days don't use AI at least to give them a spark of inspiration for their piece
Alright, no-one is stupid enough to copy paste slop straight from grok but asking AI to think about the context, or the political angle, or whatever mood the editor is looking for
Maybe I'm wrong but reading that advertisement, I'd say that was at least inspired with some sloppery
120k is crazy considering it's a charity, no wonder these 'organisations' get a bad name!
I'm just finalising my application now 🤣🤣
If you can't beat them, join them!
