About the role
The Daily Beast is seeking a motivated writer and reporter to join our award-winning team, focusing on a new newsletter beat around prediction markets and online betting. You will deliver sharp reporting on this evolving space, and develop responsible techniques to cover politics, tech, and culture intersecting with betting platforms. Ideal candidates bring 1–2 years of breaking news experience, a confident writer's voice, and the ability to work quickly with minimal supervision.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
