Technology companies beyond traditional publishers now hire journalists, editors, and writers to build content ecosystems rather than newspapers. These roles require storytelling, audience engagement, editorial strategy, and data-driven journalism skills. Companies often reframe editorial positions with corporate titles such as VP of Content or Head of Content, making openings harder to identify. Tech employers hire journalists to add credibility, clear communication, and trust-building for diverse audiences across industries like fintech, healthcare, and social apps. These roles offer greater stability, resources comparable to publishers, and the ability to reach global audiences at scale.
Today, dozens of technology companiesmany of which you'd never consider traditional publishersare hiring journalists, editors, and writers. They're not building newspapers or magazines, but they are building content ecosystems that require the same skills: storytelling, audience engagement, editorial strategy, and data-driven journalism. The catch? They don't always call the roles Editor in Chief or Journalist. Instead, these companies reframe editorial jobs in corporate languageoften disguising them under titles like VP of Content or Head of Content.
The digital economy thrives on storytelling. Whether it's a fintech startup explaining complex banking features, a healthcare platform breaking down medical research for consumers, or a social app crafting narratives to expand user adoptionthese companies all need content professionals. Hiring journalists makes sense. Journalists bring credibility, clear communication, and the ability to package information for diverse audiences. They know how to build trust, develop voice, and drive engagement.
