This position will help readers better understand our community by telling the human stories behind court cases, by digging through the court files to find interesting trends, and by being a trusted source on breaking news.

We are open to candidates of varying experience levels. Recent journalism graduates who have a strong portfolio of professional work may apply.
However, the beat would be well served by a journalist who has acquired professional experience in covering local news. The position’s compensation range is $35,000 to $40,000, depending on experience.
At the Journal-World, you will join a newsroom of approximately 10 full-time, dedicated journalists, including a team of locally based copy editors and designers who produce award-winning print and digital products.
Journalists here also are fortunate to work in a community that values local journalism. The Journal-World is well supported by subscribers, including a growing base of digital subscribers.
