The position involves publishing summaries and excerpts of Mongabay features and investigative reports and aggregating information from news outlets and scientific journals.

The ideal candidate will research and write quick-turnaround short-form articles, news briefs, event alerts, and video scripts, working closely with colleagues on Mongabay’s editorial team.
