The Boston Globe is hiring an express reporter to focus on Rhode Island, a critical part of our regional expansion that will deliver breaking news and accountability journalism to the Ocean State.
Our express reporters are some of the most-read and most versatile journalists at the Globe. They write fast and write well, covering a wide range of in-the-moment topics that often serve as the foundation of daily coverage. They strike a conversational, accessible tone that engages readers, and they utilize myriad story formats to distill complex subjects into readable articles.
The ideal candidate should possess a high metabolism and strong initiative — the hardest part of the day should be deciding which of your many ideas you don’t have the time to pursue. The express reporter should also be a newshound who thrives in breaking situations. They are able to confirm and publish stories quickly online and then update them throughout the day, taking feeds from other reporters and pushing a story continuously forward.
The reporter will work closely with both the Globe’s main Boston office and the Rhode Island bureau in Providence.
