Have you heard the news? Journalism.co.uk is hiring! We are on the lookout for a multimedia reporter.

This is a rare opportunity to get right into the thick of the industry, reporting on the latest happenings, developing a core network of contacts and making the most of the digital tools at your disposal.

The question is: could it be you? We take a look at the core skills needed to be the next mobile journalism mastermind in our tight-knit newsroom.

Knowledgeable

Just like any other reporter, we need a go-getter and a plate-spinner, someone who can deliver regular stories for the website. They will have a broad sense of the latest trends and a variety of topics up their sleeve.

This can be anything from female trailblazers to leveraging Snapchat to reach new audiences, to emerging and must-have tools and tech for journalists.

Multimedia-skilled

The clue is in the title really; as well as engaging video stories, our new reporter needs to produce compelling podcasts and reports from conferences.

Making the most of social media has never been more important, and our weekly news updates are an apt example of that:

Business-savvy

Reporters are key to the organisation of our digital journalism conference Newsrewired.

Not only do they devise an agenda full of fresh topics, they get brilliant speakers on board for the panel discussions and most importantly, think about strategies to get delegates through the front door.
