European Reporter

Location UK-London

Category Writing/Editing

Position Type US - FT Exempt

Office Model Hybrid

Seniority Level (Linked In) Associate

We are looking for a European reporter who wants to make a name for themselves covering two of the fast-growing beats in commercial property – logistics and data centres. This is not a role where you will be stuck rewriting press releases. Your focus will be on meeting people and building a contact base in order to break news stories and write in-depth analysis for Green Street News, the leading publication covering the commercial property market globally.

This role is focused on the UK and Europe.

Some of our past scoops – including Blackstone’s acquisition of €1bn French logistics business Proudreed and the departure of British Land’s CEO to join P3 Logistic Parks – show the range of the internationally significant stories we break. Property is an open and social industry that offers the successful candidate the chance to quickly build a contact base and establish themselves.

The successful candidate will ideally be London-based. Our European head office is in Mayfair and we have a satellite office in Manchester. We also have European reporters in France and Germany.

• Breaking exclusive stories on the logistics and data centre markets in the UK and Europe
• Establishing a contact base and regularly meeting senior industry figures
• Writing analysis pieces and interviews
• Overseeing the publication of Green Street News’ UK morning bulletin once a week and weekly pan-European logistics bulletin
• Attending industry conferences
• Collaborate on stories with the wider Green Street News and Green Street Infrastructure teams

• 1-2 years of experience as a business journalist. Candidates with a background in real estate will also be considered
• Exceptional command of written English
• Ability to work a patch and break news
• Real estate knowledge/experience would be advantageous but is not a necessity
• Another European language, especially Spanish or Dutch, would be advantageous but is not a requirement
• A collaborative mindset, keen to share in and celebrate the team’s successes
• A willingness to learn, adapt and take on instruction, with a positive attitude to personal development

In addition to a basic salary, this position is eligible for a performance bonus and benefits (subject to eligibility requirements). Total compensation is based on several factors including, but not limited to, type of position, location, education level, work experience, and certifications. This information is applicable for all full-time positions.

Green Street will not sponsor or transfer employment work visas for this position. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United Kingdom without the need for visa sponsorship now or in the future.
