Orianna Rosa Royle leads Fortune’s Success vertical, where she covers careers, leadership, and the future of work. An award‑winning London‑based journalist with over a decade of experience, she turned her own escape from poverty into a beat: unpacking how people actually get hired, build wealth, and create thriving working lives. Since joining Fortune in 2023, she’s become one of its most‑read writers, known for exclusive CEO interviews and rags‑to‑riches stories.

Orianna runs Fortune's executive lifestyle series The Good Life and writes the weekly Fortune Success newsletter. She has also created two of Success's signature franchises: The Interview Playbook, on how to actually get the job, and The Promotion Playbook, on how to get promoted once you're in.
