Projects

About the role

BNamericas is looking for a Reporter/Journalist to produce timely, exclusive, and forward-looking news and analysis on Mexico's mining, infrastructure, and political risk sectors, providing subscribers with actionable market intelligence and context on regulatory and macroeconomic developments.

En BNamericas promovemos procesos de selección inclusivos y estamos comprometidos con la igualdad de oportunidades. Esta oferta laboral se enmarca en la Ley N°21.015, que incentiva la inclusión de personas con discapacidad en el mundo laboral. Si requieres algún ajuste razonable para participar en el proceso, no dudes en indicarlo.

Key Responsibilities

• Sector coverage: Produce and deliver analysis articles and news on Mexico's mining, infrastructure, and political risk sectors, with occasional coverage of energy (oil, gas, and electricity) as agreed per assignment. Deliverables must be timely, relevant, and exclusive in nature, with a forward-looking focus.
• Sourcing & relationship building: Maintain an independent network of contacts —executives, government officials, analysts, and industry associations in Mexico— that enables the generation of exclusive content (interviews, scoops) as part of the agreed deliverables.
• Original reporting: Produce analysis pieces, interviews, and features based on primary sources, avoiding mere aggregation of third-party content.
• Political risk: Contribute content for BNamericas' monthly political risk report, focused on political and macroeconomic factors affecting investors in Mexico.
• Editorial deliverables: Meet daily and monthly publishing and engagement targets, coordinating with editors on story angles and prioritization.
• Market context: Incorporate macroeconomic and regulatory context into analyses (e.g., Mexican energy reform, government policy shifts) to help subscribers understand the business implications.
• Multimedia/interview work: Conduct video/audio interviews and, when specifically agreed, participate as a BNamericas collaborator at industry conferences or events in Mexico.
• Collaboration: Coordinate with the LatAm editorial team, as required per assignment, to identify cross-border trends relevant to coverage.

Compensation

Estimated gross salary: USD 2,500 – 3,000 / month.
