Background
About Robert Sakai-Irvine
A fluently bilingual editor and journalist with 16 years' experience at the English edition of The Mainichi Newspapers based in Tokyo, 14 of them as a desk editor (team manager). An efficient and amiable team manager, able to quickly set priorities and shepherd stories from assignment through the editorial process and publishing with minimum friction, from breaking news to long-form features and series. A pioneer in introducing AI tools to the newsroom, including engineering system prompts for streamlining daily tasks for the entire team. Excellent understanding of Japanese politics, social issues and economic conditions in the Asian and global context, gained from immersion in the ebb and flow of the newsroom. A good connector, able to build a strong and durable rapport with diverse sources and co-workers. A strong storyteller who brings life and narrative energy to every project. Fully English-Japanese bilingual (JLPT N1) Citizenship: Canada & U.K.
