    Default job background
    Full time
    Description
    Law Business Research (LBR) is offering aspiring young journalists and writers the opportunity to join our early career trainee reporter scheme. LBR delivers must-have intelligence to leading law firms and companies when they need it through a combination of time-sensitive insight, proprietary data and analytics, expert research and sophisticated tools, across a range of specialist platforms. We want to find and train committed reporters and writers who can break stories and generate unmissable analysis about important business issues around the world. If you are successful in our selection process, you will join one of our platforms in a full-time, permanent role. You'll get the opportunity to write news, analysis and other content, make your own contacts and generate long-form features.

    Our newsroom has a track record of generating agenda-leading content including:
  • Investigating why an ongoing bribery probe by Indian authorities has dragged on for more than a decade, with a British man held in custody for five years;
  • Tracking a money-laundering and scam scheme that targeted trademark applicants, contributing to a change in US government policy;
  • Reporting a Swiss court convicting a British lawyer for participating in a fake Kuwaiti arbitration.
    • We spot opportunities to generate stories from courts, data, policy changes, and relationships with lawyers, policymakers and more. All members of the editorial team have opportunities to travel internationally. Many of our senior team started and trained here, which demonstrates the supportive environment we offer; other colleagues have moved on to jobs at leading newspapers, B2B publishers, and other roles. LBR is a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we welcome applications from different backgrounds. We recognise the importance of diverse perspectives, and strongly believe that having a variety of voices on our team makes our content better. Our ambition is to have more diversity in our newsroom. We thus pride ourselves on a fair and unbiased, inclusive and accessible recruitment process. Candidates will be assessed through writing tests – which are reviewed on an anonymous basis – and face-to-face interviews with senior members of the editorial team. Candidates with a qualification in journalism such as an NCTJ or journalism degree or post-graduate qualification, are preferred, and some academic or practical legal experience can be useful. But we will consider all applicants with the ability to demonstrate an instinct for news and an ability to write clearly and concisely.

    Why LBR?
    An amazing market position, enviable growth, collaboration and wonderful people are just some of the reasons to further your career with Law Business Research. Our culture is shaped by our core values that promote equality, agility, and respect in everything we do.

    Law Business Research has been selected as a finalist for the 2024 Inspiring Workplaces Awards. We're proud of our inclusive and inspiring culture here at LBR and we remain committed to creating a positive workplace for all our employees.
