This is a senior, high-profile correspondent role at the heart of Sky News’ coverage of crime, policing, the criminal justice system and home affairs.
As Crime and Home Affairs Correspondent, you will be one of the defining voices on the biggest and most consequential stories affecting the UK. You will have the authority, expertise and contacts to break exclusive stories, run major investigations and explain complex issues with clarity, insight and impact.
You will own your beat. That means developing an unrivalled network of sources, spotting stories before they emerge, asking the questions others are not asking and pursuing journalism that holds power to account.
You will be expected to go beyond reporting what has happened.
You will front major breaking news, investigations, interviews and live events across television and digital, while developing distinctive journalism that audiences actively seek out.
Alongside your journalism, you will build a recognisable and trusted personal brand around your expertise. You will develop an engaged community of audiences who value your reporting and analysis, helping Sky News deepen its relationship with existing audiences and grow new ones.
This is a role for a correspondent who wants to set the agenda rather than simply follow it.
