The Guardian is investing in dozens of new roles across the UK, US, and Australia to expand its video, audio, and data journalism, as part of a major drive to reach new audiences and secure its digital future
The Guardian is creating 55 new permanent jobs across its UK, US, and Australian offices over the next year, aiming to boost its digital, audio, and visual journalism.
This expansion is part of a multimillion-pound, multiyear investment to make The Guardian more digital, visual, and global. New roles will support video-first content, data visualisations, and a new US video team, while Guardian Australia will become a global hub for social media hosts.
The investment also covers product, analytics, and commercial teams, with James Fleetham named commercial director for Project Berger. Editor-in-chief Katharine Viner says the move is about “combining our global reputation for impactful reporting with journalism that is more visual, digital, global and experimental.”
