Editor

Competitive six figure package – Westminster, London

Prospect is looking to recruit an outstanding Editor. Over the last two decades the magazine has become Britain’s home of intelligent debate priding itself on its in-depth coverage, original thinking and the vitality of its writing.

It is a must-read title that illuminates the ideas and events that shape our times and pioneers new arguments on the issues that matter. Its coverage spans the worlds of politics, business, culture, arts, technology and science.

The successful candidate will have the leadership qualities, experience and journalistic flair to build on this success and increase the title’s impact across its print, digital, event and mobile platforms.

He or she will set an exciting and consistent editorial direction, manage a talented team, cultivate the relationship with a growing readership and represent Prospect at the highest level across the political, business and cultural communities.

The post arises at an exciting moment of opportunity as Prospect has recently been acquired within the not-for-profit side of the Resolution Group and will benefit from secure financial backing enabling the new Editor to invest in future growth.

The Editor will share Prospect’s and Resolution Group’s commitment to addressing the long-term issues facing the country, authoritative analysis that shapes public debate and the non-partisan search for solutions.
