The ideal candidate will have:

• Six or more years’ experience as a working journalist
• Clips, and the stories behind them, that show meaningful investigative success. (The company requires 5 of them)
• The ability to juggle multiple stories of varying complexity — and a belief that investigative journalism means both quick turns and deeper projects
• Interest in coaching an impressive group of younger reporters with your tricks of the trade
