Professional media jobs in Japan

[dani76]

Hi,
I'm an Australian female who spent a year teaching English in 2002-3 with Aeon.
I would love to go back and work for another year but want a professional job. I work in Marketing and am a writer and editor.
Does anyone know the names of any publications (anywhere) that are targeted to English-speaking foreigners that I might be able to approach?
Thanks so much.

I found this:

The only question is how's your 日本語？

Thanks for the link.
My Japanese is so-so. I've been studying on and off for about 6 years but it's nowhere near good enough for a Japanese language publication at this stage. I had a vision of some kind of funky English street press (or something more serious). Anyone have any magazines or newspapers or publishing houses that come to mind?
Thanks a lot. Cheers

like Metropolis and Weekender but I only know them as a reader and not employer

I went pretty much the same route and I've been searching for a more professional job to get me back to Japan. Luckily, I'm a web developer and I don't think it would be too hard to find contract work (even if I have to juggle some stuff from the states).

I'm also planning on applying to Waseda University for graduate studies. It'd be a great way to get a visa and spend some time in Japan.
