      There's a very cool sounding assistant production editor position at Nature Publishing. Must have a year's experience and Quark/Photoshop skills.

      AFX, a European financial newswire, needs reporters and subeditors. French not necessary, but would be a bonus.

      And the Guardian itself needs a web production assistant with a year's experience and the usual techie skills. And the Observer needs a media correspondent -- okay, not exactly an "early career" job, but something to dream about, right?

      But in the meantime, do not miss applying for this one: The Guardian needs an editorial assistant for a one-year work placement. If you're looking to get into journalism, this is one hell of a start. Apply by July 13.

      Surely there is something there you want to apply for. No? Okay, fine then. Try these:

      Holdthefrontpage has an interesting posting from Trident, a corporate communications company. They're looking for editors, journalists, subs and an editorial assistant for their magazines. Smells like an expansion, eh? (Look under "Reporting Jobs".)

      There's a hilarious one on Gumtree today: You need five years' experience, a degree, three European languages and experience in the US in order to be the surf editor -- yes, surfing -- for a new magazine called Huck.

      Today must be a non-London day or something. On Holdthefront page, there are two Rest of England trainee reporter positions. One is in Orpington for News Shopper, the other in Leeds. Look under Reporting Jobs.
