<h1 dir="ltr">Summary</h1>
Deadline to apply: Sunday 12 May 2024 (23:59 London time)
Description: We are looking for a passionate and skilled writer to join our team on a permanent basis. The ideal candidate will bring excellent writing skills for a general audience, arguments and narratives built around trusted data, and an ability to drive a clear and exciting agenda in their area of work. This role offers the opportunity to work within a dynamic and supportive team environment, focusing on writing that reaches a wide, influential audience.
Contract type: Full-time, flexible hours.
Compensation: £55,000 to £65,000 per year for candidates living in the UK (approximately $69,000–$81,000). For international candidates, rates are adjusted. Candidates with exceptional experience may be considered for more senior positions.
Location: Our offices are in Oxford, United Kingdom, but many people in our team work remotely. We welcome applications from international candidates, though working hours should partly overlap with core UK working hours to facilitate effective collaboration with our team.

<h1 dir="ltr">About this role</h1>
Joining Our World in Data as a writer is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about making complex global issues understandable and relevant to a broad audience. This role is central to our mission of presenting research and data to improve the public's understanding and awareness of the world’s largest problems and their possible solutions.
We are looking for candidates who are comfortable writing about a range of the issues we cover at Our World in Data. You could focus on poverty and inequality, health, demography, or any of the <a href="https://ourworldindata.org/#all-topics" target="_blank">other topics we cover</a>. The ideal candidate has core expertise on some of our topics but can write on a range of topics beyond their core expertise. We welcome applications from writers of any background that links to these areas.
Joining Our World in Data gives a writer a platform to explain some of the world’s most pressing problems to a large and influential global audience. Our pages have been viewed 800 million times in the last 5 years, from every country in the world. Our users include journalists, policymakers, academics, teachers, and many others. Our articles and charts are cited thousands of times per year in major academic journals and some of the largest media publications in the world, including The Economist, BBC, New York Times, Washington Post, The Guardian, and many non-English media outlets. Policymakers and investors often rely on our work in decision-making.
This position is, in essence, a cross-over between research and journalism. Our writers have several goals in their work: they strive to write articles that stay relevant for a long period of time, by relying on data that gets regularly updated by our data team. Secondly, they work with data scientists to build up-to-date interactive visualizations that users can explore for themselves.
To thrive in this role, you’ll need to be an excellent writer and have good quantitative skills; you’ll need to understand complex research, be able to interpret large global datasets on a broad range of topics, and find a way to communicate these findings to a general audience clearly. Overcoming the “curse of knowledge” — ensuring that our data and research are accessible and engaging to those without existing knowledge of the topic — is crucial. Concepts need to be explained clearly to non-experts, avoiding jargon.
One of the most appealing aspects of this role is the opportunity to concentrate on your writing. Most research or journalist roles require you to dedicate much of your time to work other than writing — it requires you to dedicate time to administrative tasks, funding applications, data cleaning, or the promotion of the work. We’ve built a talented team of data scientists, designers, software engineers, product managers, and communications specialists who handle all these things to support the work of others. As a writer, you can dedicate your energy and creativity to what you do best: writing.
