Job Details

POLITICO Europe is looking for a Tech reporter to be based in Brussels.

Tech regulation and cybersecurity are among the most pressing challenges facing policymakers and business leaders around the world.

We are looking for an experienced policy reporter to join our team and report on a wide range of topics related to tech, from privacy to data security to the rolling out of 5G and telecoms infrastructure in a context of intensifying rivalry between major powers.

This is a diverse beat that goes from headline news on data breaches to in-depth reporting on EU legislation in the making. 

The successful candidate will have an eye for detail and a track record of rigorous reporting and scoops. He or she should be a team-worker, with a good understanding of how policy is made and a demonstrated ability to develop sources within government agencies, at company level and within lobbying organizations. 

The policy reporter will contribute to our flagship daily newsletter, write short news reports as well as longer features that appeal beyond a core audience. He or she will also be the public face of POLITICO at events and panels on topics that range from cybersecurity to digital rights. 

Qualifications:

  • College degree or equivalent
  • At least two years’ newsroom experience
  • Written and verbal fluency in English
  • Fluency in other European languages a strong plus 


Equal Opportunity

It is POLITICO's policy to provide equal employment opportunity to all qualified individuals without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age or any other characteristic protected by local laws and regulations.

Additional Application Instructions:

Company

POLITICO is a global news and information company at the intersection of politics and policy.

With publications based in Washington, D.C., New York and Brussels - and continued expansion into various state capitals in the United States - POLITICO has one of the most robust and rapidly expanding roster of journalists covering politics and policy in the world.

Since its launch in 2007, POLITICO has delivered journalism about politics and policy making that is more authoritative in its sophistication and nonpartisan perspective than any competitor; that is more useful to people with a professional interest in public affairs; and that is more fun to read for a community of people who love the drama and sheer sport of politics.

The central mission of POLITICO, from birth to our current period of growth, has been to help sustain and vastly expand nonpartisan political and policy journalism.

We all believe informing readers and holding leaders accountable is and will forever be essential to smart governance, regardless of shifts in technology and consumption habits.
