The Guardian plans to create around 55 new jobs in the UK, US and Australia over the next year.

The 55 new permanent roles will be across editorial, product development, analytics and commercial.

The jobs are part of a multi-million pound investment designed to build a sustainable long-term future for The Guardian by making it “more visual, digital, global and experimental”.

US digital news outlet Politico will be part of Canberra press gallery when the parliament resumes in August. Former Labor staffer Ryan Heath will be Politico Australia’s launch editor, while The Australian Financial Review’s NSW correspondent Paul Carp is set to take on an editor role, and Capital Brief’s Finn McHugh will be a reporter.

UPDATE 10/7

McHugh is joined by Miriam Webber as inaugural Canberra Playbook co-authors.

Webber has five years under her belt as politics and public sector reporter for the Canberra Times and is a former producer for Politico in Europe.

Makes sense :rofl:
