This person must also be able to report and write daily business news items quickly and efficiently for our website, to continue our tradition of owning breaking news in this industry segment. In addition, this person will function as the primary reporter and editor of our weekly commercial real estate enewsletter, and annual real estate magazine.
In addition, this person must have comfort leading panel discussions in front of a live audience and have a desire to heavily network at key Business Record events and other industry related events.
Previous business writing experience and knowledge of the commercial real estate market is a plus; however, it is not a requirement.
