LADwallet is LADbible's money and consumer brand: the money manual nobody gave you. We help our audience with the stuff that genuinely affects their lives, from bills, banking and renting to scams, refunds, tax and pay. We explain it clearly and without jargon.
We're looking for a sharp, fast, audience-obsessed Consumer Reporter to make LADwallet a trusted, go-to destination for money journalism.
What you'll do
- Lead LADwallet's daily consumer news agenda, from breaking stories to explainers, guides and "what this means for your wallet" coverage
- Find original stories through FOIs, case studies, data and a strong contacts book across regulators, consumer bodies, charities and brands
- Turn complicated issues into simple, useful copy: who's affected, what's at stake and what to do next
- Work with our SEO, Audience, Social and Video teams, and use data to sharpen what you write
- Support the wider LADbible newsroom on general news when needed, including some weekends
What you'll bring
- Experience as a digital reporter, in consumer, money, business or news
- A strong news instinct for the human impact behind a price change, policy or product
- Fast, accurate writing and great headlines, with a solid grasp of SEO and digital performance
- Sound editorial and legal judgement on consumer and financial content
- Curiosity about new formats, platforms and AI tools
The bar we set
We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, hungry to grow and raise the standard of everyone around them. For this role, that means:
- Ownership: You take responsibility for finding and delivering stories that genuinely help our audience.
- Pace: You move quickly, make sound editorial decisions and learn from what performs.
- Audience obsession: You instinctively ask: why does this matter to our readers, and what do they need to know or do?
- Collaboration: You work openly across the newsroom and make the wider team better.
- Curiosity: You stay ahead of the news, consumer trends, platforms and tools shaping how people find and use information.
