About the Role

IBTimes UK is looking for fast, curious and reliable Weekend News Writers to join our weekend newsroom.

You'll be responsible for producing accurate, engaging and original news articles across a range of topics, including breaking news, health, consumer, entertainment, technology, royals, lifestyle and trending stories.

We're looking for writers who go beyond simply rewriting another publication. Every story should add value through stronger reporting, additional context, original angles or expert insights.

Key Responsibilities

  • Write timely, engaging news articles assigned by the Weekend News Editor.
  • Pitch original story ideas with strong traffic potential.
  • Conduct independent research using credible sources.
  • Identify opportunities to strengthen stories with:
  • Expert commentary
  • Exclusive interviews
  • Reddit and social media reactions
  • Public records
  • Additional reporting
  • Ensure every article delivers on its assigned headline.
  • Follow British spelling, formatting and house style.
  • Meet deadlines while maintaining accuracy.

Editorial Standards

Every article should:

  • Answer the headline within the opening paragraphs.
  • Be original and add value beyond existing coverage.
  • Be factually accurate and properly sourced.
  • Use clear H2 subheadings in Title Case.
  • Avoid unnecessary filler and repetition.
  • Follow SEO best practices naturally.
  • Never be a summarised version of another publication's article.

Requirements

  • Excellent written English.
  • Strong news judgement.
  • Ability to research quickly and accurately.
  • Familiarity with Google Search, Reddit, TikTok and X as news discovery tools.
  • Understanding of SEO and search intent is preferred.
  • Comfortable using AI tools responsibly to assist with research and editing, not replace original journalism.

We're Looking For Someone Who

  • Writes clean copy that requires minimal editing.
  • Understands what makes readers click.
  • Spots fresh angles others miss.
  • Works well under pressure.
  • Is eager to improve through editorial feedback.

How to Apply

Please send:

  • Your CV
  • Two published writing samples
  • A short cover letter explaining why you'd be a good fit for IBTimes UK

Shortlisted candidates will complete a paid writing assessment.

Benefits:

  • Work from home

Work Location: Remote
