Job Opening: Editor for Arabian Business (ITP Publishing)
ITP Publishing is seeking an experienced editor to join its flagship business title. ArabianBusiness.com is the Middle East’s premier resource for informed news, features and commentary. The site attracts a global audience of more than 1.5million unique users per month and is growing on a daily basis. We’re seeking an editor that can take us to the next level.

The editor will manage a talented team of reporters, freelancers and high-profile contributors to set the news agenda for business professionals in the Gulf. You’ll need to be as comfortable editing a high turnover of stories and monitoring regional business trends as you will project managing industry-leading special reports such as the annual Arabian Business Rich List. Overseeing the site front page, daily newsletters, mobile apps and a tablet edition as well as a growing social media network you will need to be a digital all-rounder with first rate news sense.

The right candidate must have a demonstrable background as a news or business journalist. Brilliant headline writing, speedy subbing skills, a tenacious interview style and a creative grasp of what works well online are all a must. This is a hands-on managerial position that would suit a proven leader looking for a new challenge.

The position is based in Dubai and a knowledge of the Middle East region is an advantage although not essential.

To apply for the position please send a cover letter and your CV to will.milner@itp.com.
