Creating excellent journalism
Our editorial team
Reporting
POLITICO has 70+ reporters in Brussels (more than any other international media outlet) with another 45+ spread between London, Paris, Rome and Berlin — plus a network of regular contributors across the rest of the Continent. Their job is to make contacts within the EU institutions and national governments and find out what is really going on so that our readers find out first. We major on the most important developments in European politics and policy, including the impact these events will have on businesses, citizens, diplomacy and the economy.
Editing
POLITICO’s editing team guides our coverage by commissioning and editing news, features and opinion pieces on the most important stories of the day. The aim is for our report to give our readers an insider’s insight into what is really going on and what it means. Our editors also oversee investigations and help direct reporters towards important scoops.
Matt Honeycombe-Foster
UK Policy Editor

The best thing for me about working at POLITICO is our global perspective. Editors will challenge us to think outside of the capitals we work in and ask how the stories we’re obsessing over in our countries fit into a bigger international picture. It means you learn something new pretty much every day. POLITICO also has a proper sense of fun, which comes across in our headlines and story ideas.
One piece of advice you would offer to someone applying for a job at POLITICO:
Bring ideas, bring enthusiasm — and think about a creative way to tell a story that personally excites you and that our editors may not even have spotted yet! Good luck.
Production
POLITICO’s production desk ensures the smooth delivery of content to our audience, via the website, email and social media. The team aims to provide readers with a visually compelling experience through the use of attractive photos, illustrations and design, plus the creation of illuminating infographics.

Since joining POLITICO in November 2020, I’ve worked to expand our data-driven coverage and to present our journalism in eye-catching and innovative ways using charts, maps and interactives. I also write about urban life as part of our Living Cities project.
My favorite part is working with reporters and editors from the entire newsroom; we are a very talented bunch and there’s always something to learn from their invaluable expertise.
