The posting

Do you love aviation and writing? We may just have a job for you! :)

Read more about us below:

ch-aviation is a company that provides accurate data and news on the business and commercial airline industry. Our News team currently has nine team members who work from various locations (Lithuania, Mexico, Portugal, Serbia, Philippines, and South Africa) across the globe.

As such, we are now looking for a full-time aviation journalist with mother-tongue-level knowledge of English to be employed on a long-term contractor basis, or as an employee based in Switzerland, Croatia, Serbia, or Thailand.

Job Description

Given our push to enhance our coverage of the global aviation market, we are currently looking for an experienced aviation journalist with experience writing in English remotely.

As a journalist, part of your job will involve researching and chasing down leads you come across via the various news articles and regulatory documents that land on your desk from around the world on a daily basis. You will be responsible for using the leads, information, and sources to build up articles that are suited to an English-speaking B2B audience.

For this position, aviation industry knowledge and general business journalism knowledge is necessary.

As a journalist, you can expect to write articles covering wide business and commercial-aviation topics such as fleet and aircraft order news, mergers and acquisitions, and takeover battles, regulatory/sanctions stories, airline network/operational updates, and general business model developments. Knowledge of aircraft types, aviation terminology, regulations, and legal frameworks is therefore a requirement.

This job will also require you to build and maintain relationships with people from across the world who will then help you in corroborating stories as well as breaking news. Therefore, you must be willing to proactively engage people either via email, telephone or even in person in order to foster these ties.

Aside from a disciplined, analytically oriented mindset, you must also be able to work within the established writing style guide, within set timeframes, and cooperate with the editorial team to provide high-quality content. A strong sense of global geo-political events is a must to ensure you can situate airline industry events within broader context.

Given that it is a remote-based position, the job also requires a person capable of working independently and coordinating with a team over remote communications tools. While the initial training and some further recurrent guidance will be provided in person, subsequent supervision and mentoring will be remote and flexible.

Given the nature of our work, a strong passion for and background knowledge of civil aviation is required.

The ideal candidate will have experience in journalism and knowledge of the civil and/or business aviation world. They will also have several verifiable unedited pieces, in English, for reference.

Responsibilities

  • Independently research and review aviation-related articles which may or may not be in English;
  • Cultivate sources at airlines/companies/governments from across the globe
  • Do additional research to corroborate/clarify reports;
  • Extract from said articles, information relevant to the ch-aviation market context;
  • Create unique English-based articles featuring said extracts as well as other information you deem useful to the piece;
  • Work to set deadlines;
  • Work with the editorial team to ensure set standards and quality are maintained;
  • Develop sources and maintain interpersonal relationships with key players in the industry;
  • Travel from time to time, both as a reporter and to meet with the international team of journalists.

Required Skills

  • C2-level of English language, both oral and written. Knowing multiple languages is a plus;
  • Previous newsroom experience is a plus;
  • Ability to properly structure an English news article using in-house guidelines;
  • Verbal and written communication skills, strong attention to detail, critical thinking;
  • Ability to work independently and to collaborate with colleagues, problem-solve, self-organize, manage own work schedule and time, meet hard and soft deadlines;
  • Ability to analyse, develop and write your own articles;
  • Ability to keep data and information confidential;
  • Strong digital research skills, including advanced use of search engines and online databases to track down leads and verify information;
  • Previous experience with Microsoft Office suite (Word, Outlook).

Optional Skills

  • Previous experience working in a multi-cultural, multi-national environment;
  • Knowledge of Boolean search terms;
  • Language skills in multiple languages are a plus.

Location: Remote, Global.

Application process:

If you think you would be a perfect match for our company and the advertised position, submit your motivation letter and Curriculum Vitae in English.

Please note that only applications in the English language will be accepted. Thereafter, only short-listed candidates will be contacted.

All applications will be considered under the terms and conditions of confidentiality and in accordance with regulations governing personal data protection.

This is a full-time position within the news team and applicants will be subject to a practical assessment to determine the best fit for the role. A short interview could also be a part of the selection process to conclude the final selection of the candidate if there are similar assessment levels/results.
