We're looking for a confident, take-charge journalist who hits the ground running—someone who thrives in the field, asks tough questions, and uses every tool available to create compelling, shareable stories. If you're fast, smart, deadline-driven, and energized by collaboration, you'll fit right in.

  • Embrace new technology and adapt to evolving demands to stay relevant in a rapidly shifting multi-media environment
  • Build and maintain a strong network of sources who provide tips and early access to information, enabling you to break impactful stories
  • Manage multiple stories and projects simultaneously, meeting all deadlines under pressure
  • Demonstrate unwavering journalistic integrity and the highest ethical standards

Requirements

  • Professional reporting experience
  • Commitment to enterprise and data-driven reporting
  • Demo reel that is indicative of everyday work
  • Ability to write clear, correct, compelling copy tied directly to video
  • Can work in all weather conditions
  • Have a valid driver's license and a clear driving record
  • Work varied shifts, including overnights and weekends
  • In person attendance required
  • Can deal with the stresses and pressures of time-sensitive newscast and digital production
  • Related military experience will be considered
