Do you want to make your name researching and reporting on an emerging policy area? Do you want to investigate, interview and analyse rather than re-writing press releases?
That’s what we do at PolicyTracker. We are the only newsletter devoted to spectrum policy, an increasingly important part of the telecoms, broadcasting, satellite and technologysectors. A highly respected publication, we have been in existence for 20years and all the major players in the field are subscribers. We also have a subscription-based research service and provide consultancy services.
Who We’re Looking For
We need a journalist who can identify the issues that matter to companies, regulators, and government, and then convert these into news, features, and analysis pieces. These will be delivered via our subscription website policytracker.com. Take afree 24-hour trial to find out more! (Mention that you’re a job applicant)
