SAJA Job Listings: Compiled by Maha Atal

I have been asked to collect names and short bios for a major new national
site that’s goes live in January. They are looking among SENIOR editors who
have experience in service journalism, esp. health, nutrition or lifestyle
worlds. The idea is to hire one of these editors as a consultant to work
full tilt from Labor Day to the end of December. Compensation would be
around $30k for this four-month period - depending on the skill set and
experience of the person involved. Please respond only if you are a veteran
with a proven record of success.

Please e-mail your info in the format below to sree@sree.net. I will be using e-mail filtering software, so if you don’t follow the format, I won’t see it. I will then forward everything to the people concerned. They will be back in
touch with everyone they are interested in. I don’t have any more details to
give.

From the folks at www.mergermarket.com:

Most stringers earn several thousand a month and work from home, essentially before breakfast. If by chance you know any people with good language/writing skills in the following countries who you think may be interested in doing a part-time gig for us, please let me know:

Australia
New Zealand
Taiwan
India
