Job description

Harris Hill is delighted to partner exclusively with Rory Peck Trust to recruit their new Finance & Operations Manager.

For thirty years Rory Peck Trust has been a lifeline for freelance journalists around the world. Independent journalism provides us with the facts we need to make informed decisions, Often, those on the frontlines are freelance truth-tellers, without the support of a large news organisation. The Rory Peck Trust seeks to empower them with the knowledge, resources and resilience they need to report from some of the most dangerous places in the world, safely and without fear. It provides training, equipping freelancers with potentially lifesaving first aid skills. It offers emergency financial assistance when things go wrong. And it ensures access to mental health therapy, enabling those who have experienced trauma to continue their vital work. The Trust also advocates for freelancers, honouring the world's best independent journalism at the Rory Peck Awards every November.

Over the last three decades it has helped more than 3,300 journalists, providing more than £3 million in financial assistance, every penny donated by the Trust's donors and supporters, drawn largely from UK, European and US media. But thirty years after it was founded, demand for the Trust's services is greater than ever. 2025 was the deadliest ever for members of the media, while near record numbers of journalists are in jail.
