Overview
POLITICO is looking for a reporter to cover defense in Germany for an international audience of readers and subscribers.
Germany has for years played a secondary role in defense but now Berlin is reacting to the war in Ukraine and the crisis in the Atlantic alliance with a dramatic financial and military repositioning. We are seeking a reporter who can drive coverage of this story and break news on developments from within the Bundestag, the defense ministry and the German industry.
The successful candidate will be a talented beat reporter who can write about granular developments on artillery production and multi-national weapons programs, and cover political developments on the national defense budget and military ties with other European countries, NATO and the United States.
You will be competing in a space where deep sourcing is vital and breaking news is the primary goal. Building a network of trusted contacts to land scoops and documents will be a routine part of the job – as will writing stories that explain what is happening in German defense policy in a way that is comprehensible and compelling to readers beyond Berlin.
We are looking for a team player with an eye for detail and a track record of rigorous reporting who is driven to deliver stories that stand out from the competition.
This is a full-time role based out of our Berlin newsroom.
What You’ll Do
- Break news as part of a transatlantic defense team, both for subscribers and a free-to-read audience
- Jointly author a must-read morning newsletter for subscribers
- Deliver distinctive and sharply framed stories that appeal beyond a specialist audience
- Build a broad network of sources
- Work closely with colleagues in Brussels, Paris, London and Washington
- Be a public face of POLITICO at events and panels on topics related to your beat
What You’ll Need
- At least five years’ newsroom experience
- Written and verbal fluency in both English and German are essential
- Demonstrable interest in German politics and defense
- Strong track record of breaking news
- Outstanding attention to detail and unafraid of digging into policy coverage in some depth
