Job Description

Quest Means Business is the flagship business program on CNN International, and its writers hold the key to its success. We are looking for a writer who is not just content to churn out a copy or regurgitate press releases but believes in the power of the written word to transform a segment. You will report to the show’s executive editor and will take a key role in shaping the editorial direction of the program. This is the rare opportunity to marry your passion for the news, with the literary style and flair for which other media won’t allow room. As a writer, you will have the creative freedom and imagination to creatively craft segments that leap off the screen – whether it’s through a quick-witted turn of phrase or an ingenious metaphor; an innovative graphic, or a perfectly deployed piece of sound.
