Join the Cabal!

Big Cabal Media tells the African stories that matter to Africans (on and off the continent) and to global audiences. Riding a wave of global distribution platforms seeking new stories and high-quality local content, and audiences that are consuming ever more content, Big Cabal is building the most exciting new media company to tell those stories.

We create content in a wide range of formats for global distribution, under our two publications - TechCabal and Zikoko.

TechCabal vividly captures the players, human impact and business of technology in Africa; providing the content, reporting, data and events to help the world understand where tech is taking Africa.

Zikoko is telling the most important stories that matter to young African audiences today, creating timeless and original text, image, meme and video-based content across a range of genres using the most relatable elements of youth culture.

Join us as we take African storytelling to a new level and build the media brands of the future. BCM is passionate about storytelling, technology, great design and unabashed monetization of great content. We’re interested in talented and adaptable professionals looking to do challenging and high-impact work in a collaborative environment.
