Business Journalist

Remote business journalist for an educational project, writing articles and interviews for business owners. 2-3 materials per week, fixed pay per material.

We are an educational project for business owners focused on building strong teams and management. One of the project's directions is a business magazine where we analyze entrepreneurs' experience and publish practical materials on current business issues. We are expanding our editorial team and looking for a business journalist who can work with heroes and facts, deeply understand the topic, and find strong angles for materials. In the magazine, we tell stories of entrepreneurs, analyze their business and management decisions, and publish articles on topics that concern owners. We need a journalist who can work both with heroes and with independent editorial topics. What to do: - Conduct interviews with entrepreneurs. Independently prepare for the hero, study their business, find interesting lines for conversation, and conduct the interview. - Write stories of entrepreneurs. Not just transcribe the interview, but find the central theme and build a strong material around it. - Write articles based on business owners' requests. Research the topic, find data and examples, collect comments from entrepreneurs and experts, and find a non-trivial angle where it seems everything has already been written. - Work with search topics. We need SEO articles that answer a specific reader's query but remain normal journalistic materials, not texts for keywords. - Work with team and management topics. In some materials, organically connect heroes' experience with hiring, management, and team building issues—without advertising inserts or forced conclusions.

We need a business journalist, not a copywriter. Experience with T-J 'Business', 'T-Business Secrets', RB.RU, Inc., Forbes, or other business media will be an advantage. It is important that you: - can conduct interviews, not just work with a ready transcript; - understand business and can talk to an entrepreneur on the same level; - can independently research a topic and find facts; - see a story behind a set of facts and understand what to build the material around; - can ask uncomfortable and clarifying questions if without them the story remains superficial; - can find a fresh angle in a topic that has been covered dozens of times before; - write vividly and clearly, without bureaucratic language, water, and 'successful success'; - carefully work with facts, numbers, and quotes and do not invent anything for the hero.

Remote work. 2-3 materials per week. Payment: by agreement (fixed / per material). We provide heroes and contacts for interviews. Work in tandem with an editor. Before starting cooperation, a test task is required. How to apply: Send 3-5 of your best business-themed materials. Among them, there must be articles for which you conducted interviews yourself. Add a few words about your experience: which publications and topics you worked with and how much your work on one material costs.
