About Energy Voice

Energy Voice (a DC Thomson brand) is expanding its editorial team with a role for a talented and self-starting Correspondent.

Energy Voice provides frontline energy news and views to over 2 million energy industry professionals each year. For over 25 years it has been the eyes and ears of the North Sea energy community. Energy Voice is now the first word for the entire UK energy spectrum, ensuring our readers are in the know and equipped to succeed.

With energy at the heart of the national conversation—raising questions on future resource, jobs and economics amid climate change and geopolitical crises—this position will provide a talented journalist with the opportunity to break exclusives and deliver key analysis in multiple formats.

Our news platforms, podcasts and events have never been more crucial in helping leaders understand the key factors influencing the future of UK energy.

About The Role

We are seeking a self-starting Correspondent with a nose for a story and experience producing original, high-quality journalism for online and/or print—ideally within energy, business or related industry sectors. A keen interest in the energy transition, regional economies and infrastructure is a must.

You will be responsible for producing breaking news and progressive, insightful, audience-led content to serve and grow our subscriber base, joining a growing editorial team spanning the UK.

The role requires the successful candidate to be based in or near one of the following regions: the North West (Liverpool/Manchester), North East, Yorkshire and the Humber, or Teesside. A strong local network plus a deep understanding of the patch, its communities and industries, and the stories that matter to them is essential.

It's an exciting time for you to join us here at Energy Voice as we continuously build a substantial digital subscriber base and continue to serve our loyal print readership via our monthly supplement.

Key Responsibilities:

• Write news and opinion pieces for online and print publications (editing experience desirable)
• Generate original stories and feature articles
• Work with the editorial team to ensure best-in-class reporting
• Stay ahead of industry developments to ensure Energy Voice is the essential source of breaking news

• Represent the brand at internal and external events
• Report from energy sector events and deliver video interviews
• Liaise with editorial teams across other DC Thomson publications and brands
