Amsterdam Freelance Reporter job description

We are seeking a high-energy, collaborative and news-obsessed individual to join our growing editorial team on a freelance basis! The perfect fit for this position will quickly master the Bisnow editorial process, can maintain and build relationships across the Dutch commercial real estate industry, and will keep up with our fast-paced, high-pressure environment.

BISNOW OVERVIEW

Bisnow is the leading B2B media platform powering the commercial real estate industry. We connect CRE professionals through award-winning news, high-impact events, marketing solutions, recruiting services, and sales enablement tools that drive real business results.

With 1.7M+ subscribers and 400+ events annually across 47 markets in the U.S., Canada, the UK, Ireland, and the Netherlands, we don’t just cover the industry, we help move it forward.

We inform. We connect. We create opportunities that turn into deals. Global mindset. Hyper-local execution.

  
THE BISNOW NEWSROOM
 
We take the news seriously, blending hard news scoops with analytical enterprise stories and award-winning accountability journalism. Our newsroom is small but ambitious and strives to find creative ways to cover the commercial real estate industry. We hold a hard line between our news team and BISNOW’s sales and events arms, freeing our reporters to write heavy-hitting stories without fear of sponsor influence. Our reporters dive deep on a local beat but also have the opportunity to write stories for a national audience and work on long-term special projects of national or international significance. 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Writing three or four articles per week of varying lengths and types, contributing to our daily morning briefs as needed. Coverage will be focused on the Dutch commercial real estate industry, primarily across Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Utrecht.
  • Covering breaking news and deeper enterprise reporting in the Netherlands' commercial real estate industry.
  • Working a beat — covering the latest trends, personalities, and news related to the Dutch CRE industry.
  • Infiltrating the Dutch CRE industry — turning arcane data into useful and entertaining information while maintaining personal relationships with leads and sources across the Randstad.
  • Having an intimate knowledge of the Netherlands' CRE business — knowing where the major players are located, what deals they are responsible for, and what events they attend.
  • Working with the global news teams on major projects and international series.
  • Working with our local Netherlands events and sales teams to inform editorial coverage of market trends (while maintaining a firm separation between editorial and commercial decisions).

    • WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

  • Based in the Netherlands, with familiarity across Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Utrecht.
  • Fluent in both Dutch and English — written and spoken. You'll write your stories in English but will source, report, and interview in both languages depending on the subject.
  • Great writing skills. Excellent news judgment. Digital experience and ideally at least two years of experience in business journalism.
  • The personality of a self-starter and must be a thoughtful and articulate writer who is interested in building his or her voice and journalistic brand on Bisnow.com
  • A commitment to seeking diverse stories and sourcing.
  • Though not required, it would be a plus if the candidate has knowledge of commercial real estate, urban and community planning and urban design, and especially contacts within those scenes in the Netherlands.

    • WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

  • €40/hour compensation, with hours varying around 12–20 per week depending on the news cycle and editorial calendar.
  • The freedom of a freelance arrangement combined with the editorial backing of a global news room.
  • The opportunity to define and own Bisnow's Dutch CRE editorial voice from the ground up.
  • You'll get to work with incredibly smart, passionate, driven, ambitious, kind, caring and mindful people and will rarely experience an overload of policies, bureaucracy or toxicity (the latter, we do not tolerate.)

    • Before applying, please read our values below. Our values describe and give insight into our culture. If you do not share the same values, this role will not be a mutually beneficial fit. If you do share these values and want to apply, we encourage you to do so.

    Our values demand that we be curious, self-aware, fearless, consistent. We say yes to seemingly insurmountable challenges because we dare ourselves to push further. And we go the distance because we are individually and collectively entrepreneurial, always asking: Why can’t it be done? We find a way because we care more than the competition. We embrace team and disown ego. We are ruthlessly disciplined and unabashedly kind. We unreservedly challenge the status quo and vigorously fight for new levels of excellence. We believe the difference between good and great is exceptional communication. We obsess over creating value for our team and our customers. We push ourselves and our industry to be more inclusive, to champion diversity and to fight racism, gender bias and all forms of inequality. We never peak. We never quit. We never have excuses. We own our failures and we commit to being smarter and stronger because of them. We give our best today and even better tomorrow. We are here to win.
