The Role
ITV News is looking for exceptional senior journalists to play a pivotal role at the heart of our newsgathering operation. As a Content Editor, you'll lead our news teams across the UK and around the world, driving coverage of breaking news, major investigations and the stories that set the agenda.
Working across the Home and Foreign Desks in the ITV Network Newsroom, you'll be at the centre of editorial decision-making, deploying teams, spotting opportunities and ensuring we deliver distinctive, authoritative journalism. No two days are the same. One moment you could be leading coverage of a major domestic story, the next coordinating reporting from international teams on a developing global event.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
