Journalism Jobs - August 15

On the Guardian, Alchemy are looking for an editorial assistant (14-18k). Something called the Lafferty Group has several editorial jobs for their financial publications, including a reporter (24-27k), subeditor (30-33k) and researcher (29-32k). Which? Food and Nutrition needs a senior researcher/writer (25-32k). Euroweek is looking for a pair of trainee markets reporters.

Fuji Television is looking for recent graduates for news producer roles. The British Medical Association's news magazine needs a deputy chief subeditor (32k).

The Observer needs news and business subeditors, and the Guardian itself has readvertised that G2 junior commissioning editor role -- if you haven't applied, hurry up. It says the deadline was Monday, but the ad went up today... No idea if the site is busted or if someone's stupid.

On Journalism.co.uk, mobile content provider Que Pasa is looking for a content editor and some website needs a homepage editor -- but will you really just edit the homepage? what about the rest of the pages?

Sorry. Moving along. Adfero are now also looking for researchers (17k). And Pira have advertised again.

Oodles of new ones up on Gorkana: Food mag Olive needs a subeditor, a pair of hotel mags need a freelance features editor and a freelance subeditor, and Archant's French Property News needs a freelance sub. B2B publishers Ark need an editorial assistant.

Over on Gumtree, a golf website needs an entry-level journalist. And lifestyle site 3sacrowd is looking for contributors -- they may or may not pay, I'd expect the latter, then -- as well as interns.

Haymarket is looking for a legislation writer for ends.

And this was on Gorkana's mailout, if you're really bored:

Ricochet - Looking for journalists for a new Channel 4 documentary

Following the RSA drugs report which came up with a scale of harm listing alcohol as more harmful than cannabis and ecstasy in that order. Hannah Lamb Assistant Producer for Ricochet is looking for journalists in their 20's or early 30's who are happy to admit to the occasional or more regular use of one of these substances and allow us to follow the effects that it has on their body over the period of a month.

A friend of mine has written a piece for the Independent about getting work experience -- particularily journalism experience -- overseas. Check it out, some pretty good advice there. And hell, it worked for him, obviously.
