 <li>
 Produce storytelling and analysis across formats &mdash; from newsletters to features to social content.
 </li>
 <li>
 Collaborate with editors, visual teams and colleagues across the newsroom to produce distinctive storytelling.
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 The Skills and Experiences You Bring:
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 A track record of producing compelling reporting on politics, culture or related beats.
 </li>
 <li>
 Strong writing skills with a clear, engaging and distinctive voice.
