Besides foolproof competence in English-language editing, applicants must have a strong grounding in the social sciences and a keen understanding of Southasian history, economy, culture, geopolitics and current affairs.

The position is based in Kathmandu. Salary will be commensurate with experience and energy. Application Process: Familiarise yourself with our magazine through the website, including its editorial content, then send a one-page note telling us ‘why Himal’ and suggest ideas on how you would develop the site further.
