Mail looking for trainee subs and reporters

Last year's Mail trainee reporters and subs

Applications are now open to trainee journalists who want to be reporters or sub-editors on the Daily Mail.

The successful applicants will embark on a year-long programme that involves intense training, assessment and on-the-job experience at national and regional newspapers and agencies.

If you are interested you will probably have a degree and will have shown a commitment to journalism by working for your student newspaper or website and gained work experience in newsrooms.

Previous graduates of the training scheme now hold senior positions on the Mail and its sister paper the Mail on Sunday.

The course starts in September with intensive in-house training. It is followed by five months' placement after which the trainees will join the newsroom or subs department in Kensington.

Trainees are paid a competitive salary while they train. Nearly all are offered staff jobs at the end.

To apply send a covering letter, your CV and the three best examples of your work to sue.ryan@dailymail.co.uk by Friday March 15, 2019. Please specify in the subject of the email whether your application is for either a trainee reporter or  sub-editor.

Both schemes are now being advertised on Hold The Front Page. The subbing scheme is here and the reporting one here.  

* MailOnline is also looking for a platform growth editor who will work to support the rapid growth of the Mail on Apple News, MSN, Flipboard, Google News, Upday, TopBuzz and also support audience sharing with other publishers. Details on how to apply are here
