You’ll love people, events and developing relationships. You’ll be keen to learn the background to a story, thrive on the details and above all, be passionate about being first to a story.

- A hunger for breaking news.
- Fast, confident writer.
- Natural attention to detail

- Spotting and reporting breaking news stories, anywhere on the planet – but especially within the Middle East.
- Reviewing start-ups from across the planet – but particularly within the Middle East
- Writing thoughtful discussion posts about the International technology scene; the companies involved, influencers and everything in between.
- Attending events and conferences.
- Interviewing influencers and companies involved in the headline.
