Job Description:
Job DescriptionThe Times-Picayune - New Orleans Advocate,
Louisiana's largest newspaper and a 2019 Pulitzer Prize winner, is
seeking a business reporter to join our growing newsroom. We're
looking for a journalist who can produce engaging stories across
business topics, and is adept at juggling quicker posts while
searching for scoops and crafting enterprise for print and the
web.The successful candidate will be the second of two business
reporters covering the New Orleans area at a time when political
and industry leaders are looking to move past the region' historic
reliance on tourism and trade. South Louisiana is rich with great
stories, and while the job calls for stepping into myriad topics,
the beat will likely include some specialty coverage in areas such
as real estate, development and zoning. A key responsibility will
be shaping a daily business newsletter that will strive to be the
first read for the region's decision makers. A business reporting
background is a big plus, but not required. The Times-Picayune- New
Orleans Advocate is a 7-day, home-delivered newspaper with a
veteran staff, many of whom have covered the Crescent City for
years. We are passionate about producing thoughtful, complex
journalism both in print and on our website NOLA.com, and have been
aggressive about growing the organization to reach more
subscribers. In addition to the New Orleans products, the company
publishes The Advocate in Baton Rouge and The Acadiana Advocate in
Lafayette, as well as their surging digital properties.This
position offers a competitive salary and benefits package that
includes medical, vision and dental insurance, short term
disability, long term disability and a 401K plan.The company is an
equal opportunity employer, committed to recruiting, developing,
and promoting a diverse workforce while providing unique
opportunities and career paths for our employees. We encourage
applicants of all backgrounds and experience levels to apply.
