His early career began presenting the BBC Wales news programme Wales Today in the 1980s. He then moved to commercial station HTV Wales to be one of the main anchors for the station's daily news programme Wales Tonight in the mid-1990s, before moving to sister channel HTV West in Bristol, in 1996. Owen also worked at Channel Television based in Jersey, and presented his own radio show on Orchard FM in Somerset. Between 2001 and early 2006 he anchored Sky News and since then has worked for Moscow-based TV channel RT as its senior news anchor. He has also worked extensively for the BBC World Service.
In 2008, Owen won Russia's TEFI award for "News Anchor of the Year", becoming the first foreigner to win the award. The prize, similar to Britain's Royal Television Society awards, was established in 1995 by the Academy of Russian Television (ART), an independent association including professionals from leading domestic television companies.
He was awarded a post-graduate diploma in broadcast journalism from Cardiff University.
