We want reporters who are scoops-obsessed, collaborative and outgoing, and who possess the ability to read a financial report and a desire to dig deeper than the press release. You must have an eye for details, clear and accurate writing skills and an ability to make complex issues compelling, readable and shareable.
If this sounds like you, read on.

Are you a McRib fan? Or a business reporter intrigued by how a sandwich can gain such a cult following? If so, you may be the reporter we’re looking for. We’re looking for an experienced journalist to cover consumer-product marketing with a concentration on the fast-food industry. It’s a fast-paced beat that covers some of the country’s top newsmakers including McDonald’s, Starbucks, Burger King, Taco Bell and more. Fast-food reporting experience is strongly preferred.

This reporter will be charged with diving into how digital technologies are impacting our industry.
