REQ-018698

Future Perfect covers the world through a particular prism: What are the best ways to do good in this world? What are the stories that are both important — meaning they affect large numbers of people and animals — yet are undercovered by the media at large? And what are the solutions to those problems that have actual traction in the world we live in? 

Inspired in part by the philosophy of effective altruism, Future Perfect strives to shine a light on neglected stories that have, or will have, a profound impact on the lives of billions of humans and animals.

Since its launch in 2018, Future Perfect has developed a loyal following for its idiosyncratic, mission-driven approach to news. Among our key subject areas include global poverty and public health, the catastrophic and existential threats that we face, and animal welfare and factory farming. We cover the philosophies and practices surrounding philanthropy and major companies, and the moral and ethical questions that underpin individual and policy choices. Our journalism is rigorously evidence-based, prizing data and research over vibes and anecdotes. We’re not afraid to go against prevailing media narratives if we believe they’re ultimately false, and we’re looking for writers who are willing and eager to do so. 

True to the name of the vertical, we constantly ask ourselves: In 10, 20, 30 years, what will we look back on and wish we devoted more time covering? Then we go ahead and do those stories today.

This spring, thanks to a generous grant, we’re hiring a new class of three fellows to help us ensure Future Perfect is telling the most important stories to our audience and approaching those stories with nuance and discernment. The fellowship is a one-year, full-time position.

The Future Perfect Fellowship is a perfect opportunity for emerging journalism talent, especially with expertise in or at least real enthusiasm for our key areas, like animal welfare, AI, biotechnology and global development/health. We’re also open to more established, early to mid-career writers who have shown expertise in some of our subjects or wish to make a switch and focus on them, and can benefit from a year working and publishing with our team. 

The fellowship will be a year-long program that will involve opportunities to publish regularly on Future Perfect. Aside from intensive feedback from editors, fellows will also have dedicated mentors, exclusive networking opportunities, and skills training sessions featuring journalists from Vox Media and other outlets. This fellowship should be considered an opportunity to grow as a writer.

We’re looking for someone with:

• Previous writing and reporting experience, especially on or around our core subject areas. This can include professional publication, college papers, non-profit writing, even online newsletters. What we’re looking for is evidence of original thinking and writing skill.
• A demonstrated passion for and familiarity with Future Perfect’s areas of coverage, including artificial intelligence; global poverty and global health; pandemics and other catastrophic threats to humanity; animal welfare and factory farming; moral philosophy; effective altruism more broadly; and philanthropy. A major factor is being able to understand and articulate what makes Future Perfect’s approach different from that of other verticals in subjects like climate change or health that may cross over with our material. Bonus points for demonstrated expertise or previous work in one or more of the above subjects, especially artificial intelligence and global health policy — two areas where we expect to double down on.
• An interest in explanatory journalism of the kind long-practiced by Vox.
• Tenacious curiosity and a creative approach to storytelling, including an interest in telling stories about the world through the Future Perfect lens.

What you’ll do:

• Produce distinct Future Perfect content
• Participate in story meetings and pitch fresh ideas
• Work with editors to shape and improve content
• Participate in skill shares, training, and mentorship opportunities 

To apply, please submit a resume, one to three previous writing samples (journalistic stories, research papers, reports, etc.), and a one-page cover letter that includes the following: 

• Describe what it is about Future Perfect’s approach to covering the news that inspires you as a potential journalist, what about your experiences makes you right to join our team as a fellow, and the kind of subjects and stories you’d see yourself pursuing as a fellow. The key here is a demonstration of your understanding of what Future Perfect and its mission is, and why you feel you’d be a good fit.

The deadline to submit is May 12, and our next class of fellows will begin in July 2026 and run through June 2027.

WHY VOX MEDIA?

Please submit your application by the end of the day, Sunday May 10 2026. 

Salary range

A reasonable estimate of the salary range for this role is $90,000 to $120,000. To ensure pay fairness, the successful candidate will be offered a salary within the estimated salary range based on a number of considerations including but not limited to: skill set; experience and training; certifications; and other business and organisational needs.

This position is open to a broad pool of candidates, both internal and external.  Where an external candidate is hired or a successful internal candidate is appointed to the role on terms covered by the collective bargaining agreement, they will be represented by the News Media Guild (NMG). Candidates appointed on other (i.e. foreign) employment terms, including certain internal transfers on assignments from other bureaux, may not be represented by the NMG.

The use of AI

Original reporting, great writing and intelligent commentary lie at the heart of FT journalism. Our readers trust us to produce quality journalism that is accurate, fair and insightful. This is why FT editorial staff do not by default use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to write articles or create other reader-facing content. For specific and pre-approved cases, AI can be harnessed for certain tasks, such as assisting data research for investigations.  

We expect applicants to the FT newsroom to refrain from using AI in their test submissions, and any written materials should be a genuine reflection of their own knowledge, skills and experiences. We encourage candidates only to employ AI as a tool to help with research and interview readiness for a role. 

Candidates should be aware that the use of AI throughout the application process is monitored to ensure a fair and transparent hiring process for all.

Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion 

We believe in the power of unique perspectives and want all voices in our organisation to be heard, respected and valued. A supportive workplace is one where employees feel they can be themselves and operate to their full potential. We are committed to removing barriers for everyone, with a focus on addressing those faced by underrepresented groups.

What’s in it for you? Our benefits

Our benefits vary by location but we are committed to providing best-in-class perks across all our offices. These include generous annual leave, medical cover, inclusive parental leave packages, subsidised gym memberships and opportunities to give back to the community. Full details of our benefits are available here.

FT Newsroom staff are expected to work onsite a minimum of three days per week, subject to role requirements and regular review. While flexible working requests will be considered, not all patterns are suitable for Editorial roles.

Accessibility

We are a disability confident employer and Valuable 500 signatory.

We are seeking an experienced investigative journalist to help expand our coverage of the Pentagon and the U.S. armed forces. The Department of Defense is the government’s largest agency, with a budget of nearly $1 trillion. Its operations at home and abroad are testing long-standing alliances and rules of engagement, just as policy changes have made its activities, and its leaders, harder to scrutinize. We’re looking for someone to add to ProPublica’s long history of holding this branch of government to account through deep reporting that has an impact.

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of breaking through the wall of secrecy surrounding so much of what the U.S. military does; an insider’s understanding of its hierarchy, codes and traditions; and an outsider’s healthy curiosity and skepticism. They will be knowledgeable about the connections between the various agencies and the companies that influence or benefit from national security policies. They will have the kinds of sources who help them to both get behind the scenes of how decisions and policies are made and document their impact. And they will have demonstrated an ability to responsibly handle sensitive information. 

This reporter will be based in ProPublica’s Washington, D.C., office and will be part of a team assigned to nail big scoops and land agenda-setting investigations. Candidates must be willing to collaborate not only with their colleagues on the military beat but also with those working in other coverage areas.

We're Looking for Someone With:

• At least five years of experience producing original accountability journalism and a talent for, and dedication to, digging for the truth. Your portfolio should show that you are already doing this work.
• A vision for how they’d approach military investigations for ProPublica. You should strive to report and write stories that are both important and powerfully told.
• Expertise covering defense and national security; you should be sourced and able to hit the ground running on impactful stories.
• Experience with a wide range of reporting techniques, from underpinning stories with exclusive data analysis to using creative strategies to engage with readers and sources.
• Demonstrated storytelling skills. You should be a skilled investigative storyteller, capable of delivering findings in ways that connect with readers, either as riveting narratives or muscular, vivid investigative reports.
• An ability to bring an accountability lens to the issues of the day through quick investigations reported over a couple of weeks as well as longer projects that may require months (or more) of digging.
• The instincts to pursue urgent, high-stakes stories that are central to the national conversation or crisis of a given moment, which can require carving out a lane amid competition.
• Prior experience and an affinity for working with others. We are a highly collaborative newsroom, both across our teams and with other news organizations regionally and nationally. We believe we do our best work together.
• The ability to travel, as needed, for assignments, training and staff meetings.

This job is full time and includes benefits. This role will be based in ProPublica’s Washington, D.C., office, so candidates should live within the metropolitan area or be willing to relocate. Applicants must be eligible to work in the U.S.

The expected salary range for this position is $135,000 to $165,000.

This is a good-faith estimate of what we expect to pay for this position. The final salary figure will take into account a person’s experience, accomplishment and location. ProPublica is committed to paying its staff equitably, and these ranges should not be considered career salary limits or caps.

We will begin reviewing applications as we receive them, but we will continue to consider candidates as long as the posting remains live on our site.
