We are hiring!

Airwars’ award-winning Investigations and Accountability team specialises in long-form investigations on matters relating to civilian harm in conflict, typically in conjunction with major international media. In the past year our work has included exposing secret documents around the deaths of civilians, analysis of trade patterns of Russian munitions, visual reconstructions of a prison break and in-depth analysis of civilian harm in Gaza. The unit’s work has been recognised at multiple award ceremonies, including the Amnesty Media Awards and the Open Source Film Awards.

Airwars is looking to bring on board a talented investigator to play a key role in shaping the small investigations team in the coming years.

The candidate should have at least four years’ experience working on investigative journalism or research, a proven drive and passion for human rights and the kind of work Airwars specialises in, and a record of building source networks and publishing exclusive stories.

Send a CV, one-page cover letter and up to two clippings of published investigations to jobs@airwars.org by August 25th, 2024

Volunteer with us

Airwars began as an all-volunteer organisation in 2014 – and volunteers continue to play a vital role in our work. Our Board and Advisory Board give generously of their time and knowledge for example, comprising specialists from the conflict countries we monitor, along with experts in fields including munitions analysis, civilian casualty monitoring, geolocation and data journalism.

Please note we require all volunteers to commit to a minimum of 10 hours per week.

If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out this form. We will aim to get back to you within a month, though please be patient as we are currently stretched.

If you sent us an email prior to April 2024 about volunteering and have not yet heard back, please fill in this form.
