Athens, Greece: Greece and Balkans Bureau Chief - Reuters
Job Vacancy: Greece and Balkans Bureau Chief - Reuters |
Location: Athens, Greece |
Closing Date: 31st January 2023 |
Reuters is looking for a bureau chief to lead its news coverage across Greece and the Balkans. This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious journalist keen to make their mark in a region rich with fascinating stories. In the Balkans, tension between Kosovo and Serbia is testing NATO’s ability to keep a fragile peace while Western Europe and Russia jostle for influence in the region. That’s against a darkening economic outlook as environmental concerns and depopulation cloud investments in minerals and energy. In Greece, the economy has emerged from a decade-long debt crisis though its plans to return to investment grade status in 2023 will be tested by the spike in inflation. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is hoping to win a second term in office but may struggle to form a stable government, risking a fresh period of instability just as tensions with Turkey are rising. A successful candidate for this role will ensure Reuters delivers fast and thorough coverage of the most important breaking news. They will also lead the team in producing high-impact stories that require some digging to find. They will directly manage the text reporting teams in the region and also work closely with visuals staff to produce a rich and deep news file across all mediums. |
