Nub News is looking for a journalist to come on board to help expand our coverage in Warwick district.

Nub News is an innovative media platform that gives its journalists the power to write their own stories and build their own audiences, on a patch where they live and work.

We're revolutionising local news and now have publications nationwide including in Kenilworth, Warwick and Royal Leamington Spa.

We are looking for an energetic journalist to write proper, original news for Kenilworth Nub News and Warwick Nub News.

Our sites carry a balance of editorial coverage featuring breaking news, crime, community events, education, council issues and sport. If it's happening on the patch, we want you to write about it.

You will need to be able to write catchy headlines and create engaging social media posts.

Key to our success is having local reporters on their patch and getting out into their towns.

Therefore, the successful applicant would need to live in Warwick district.

In addition to providing copy for our website, you will be required to support and promote it via social media channels.

It sounds like a tough job, but it's a rewarding one with a competitive salary and the benefit of being at the heart of a local community.

And you will have expert help to back you up from our team of experienced journalists and managers.

This job would be perfectly suited for a young reporter. We offer a unique opportunity to learn your trade – to find and publish credible local news on a respected digital platform.

Nub News sites don't rely on programmable ads so you won't have to publish 'clickbait content' that simply keeps readers on the site.

Instead, our journalists are expected to find original and exclusive, local news stories. They go out into their local communities and talk to people face-to-face.

So, we're looking for enthusiastic applicants who care about both their community and their journalism and who want to enjoy their work.

Application Details

Please submit your application, including a CV and cover letter, to our managing director James Smith at [email protected]
