**Company Description**
The Australian Financial Review is the nation's premier business and politics publication, renowned for its incisive, independent and agenda-setting journalism. The Financial Review believes an innovative and entrepreneurial business community is critical to Australia’s future prosperity in an increasingly connected world. Our focus is Australia but our mindset is global; we are as committed to covering the corporate and political stories that will shape the new economy as we are to reporting on the establishment. We believe that it is important for our newsroom to celebrate success and scrutinise misconduct. Financial Review readers want to make up their own minds, which means our editorial mission is to be impartial, informative and accountable. The Financial Review is home to Australia's top journalists, all of whom work tirelessly to produce trusted, timely and engaging content with a focus on digital audiences and contemporary forms of storytelling.

We are looking for a Perth-based journalist who will report on political and economic issues for a national audience from the West Australian capital.

- Prepare clear, accurate, balanced, timely reports that conform to Financial Review style.
- Work ethically and maintain high standards of independence, accuracy and quality.
- Write articles which offer context and analysis of major news or issues, as required.
- Be proactive about the visual presentation of stories, including by commissioning accompanying photography and graphics.
- Maintain and expand a network of reliable, authoritative contacts.
- Contribute to national coverage for the Financial Review, collaborating with colleagues in Canberra and other places and taking on reporting outside WA as required.

**Qualifications** What we would like to see**:

- Experience as a reporter, or experience in business or politics combined with very strong writing skills.
- Demonstrated understanding of Western Australian politics, the main players and the key issues for Western Australia’s business community.
- Solid editorial judgement - from nailing an angle to pitching stories.
- A passion for news and current affairs, politics, business and economics.
- Excellent organisation and time management skills, including an ability to meet strict deadlines.
- Experience in digital article production - including writing headlines and write-offs, image selection and search engine optimisation - or a willingness to learn.
- An ability to deliver sophisticated analysis of major news and issues would be a plus

**Additional Information**
We're committed to a safe, respectful and inclusive Nine. From day one, you'll be encouraged to bring your whole self to work and will be supported to perform at your best.
