The Globe and Mail is currently accepting pitches for its business opinion section, offering strong opportunities for freelance writers, journalists, and industry experts to contribute high-level analysis pieces.

This is a premium freelance writing opportunity for writers interested in business writing jobs, opinion journalism, and high-paying freelance writing gigs with an international publication. The section focuses on sharp, insightful commentary on business, markets, and economic trends—so writers should come prepared with clear arguments, strong perspectives, and timely angles.

Writers are encouraged to review previously published articles in the section to understand tone, depth, and editorial expectations before pitching.

This is not entry-level content. The editor is looking for well-developed opinion pieces that demonstrate expertise, original thinking, and relevance to current business conversations. If you can break down complex economic or corporate issues into compelling narratives, this is a strong opportunity.

For Kenyan and international writers targeting remote writing jobs, freelance business writing jobs, or opinion writing gigs, this is exactly the level where strong pitching separates you from everyone else.

What They’re Looking For:

• Sharp, well-argued business opinion pieces
• Timely insights on markets, companies, and economic trends
• Original perspectives—not recycled takes
• Clear writing backed by knowledge or reporting
