Job description

Job Summary:
Middle East Broadcasting Networks (MBN) is a leading Arabic-first media organization focused on delivering essential reporting on the Middle East and U.S. relations. They are seeking a Data Editor to transform complex datasets related to China's economic activities into clear, impactful stories that resonate with their audience.
Responsibilities:
• Identify, acquire, and manage the structured and unstructured datasets behind China’s economic, geopolitical, and MENA-facing activity.
• Design and build quantitative projects that combine investigative journalism, big-data analytics, and geopolitical research.
• Run advanced analysis — statistical modeling, regression, network analysis — to produce findings that are methodologically sound and editorially meaningful.
• Clean, transform, and integrate complex, multi-source data so it’s ready for analysis.
• Produce clear, compelling visualizations, interactive graphics, and analytical products for a news, policy, and multicultural audience.
• Pitch and lead original data-driven stories, and back up investigations led by others on the desk.
• Work closely with the Senior Editor, the Senior Investigative Correspondent, and the MENA field reporters to embed quantitative findings in the wider geopolitical story.
• Build and maintain reproducible, well-documented data pipelines that support regular updates and comparison over time.
• Track China–MENA structural indicators — trade flows, shipping and logistics, sovereign investment, corporate ownership — as reusable datasets for the whole newsroom.
Qualifications:
Required:
• A bachelor’s degree or 5+ years of relevant experience.
• Near-native Mandarin Chinese (required).
• A journalism, policy-research, or social-science background, with the writing skills to produce clear, publication-ready analysis.
• Strong quantitative and analytical skills, with R or Python for data cleaning, statistical analysis, and visualization.
• Experience with panel data or large-scale datasets, and a solid grasp of the challenges of cross-national, cross-temporal analysis.
• Advanced spreadsheet skills (pivot tables, complex formulas) and experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, Airtable, or Microsoft Access).
• The ability to translate complex results into clear graphics and written analysis.
• A track record of working independently, meeting deadlines, and juggling several workstreams in a fast-moving newsroom.
Preferred:
• Arabic proficiency is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with visualization tools such as Tableau, Observable, or D3.
• Experience with investigative techniques — public-records requests, document analysis, and source cultivation.
• Familiarity with open-source intelligence (OSINT) methods and tools.
• Knowledge of major international databases such as AidData, CARI, SIPRI, or UN Comtrade.
• Experience building geopolitical or international-relations indicators, scorecards, or tracking tools.
• Prior experience covering China–MENA, the MENA region, or international relations
