The Globe and Mail is looking for an experienced reporter to join our Report on Business team covering technology.
Canada has produced many large tech companies in recent years, and upstarts are flourishing in greater numbers than ever. Covering technology, however, demands much more than passing along the latest news from companies that produce it.
Technology pervades all industries as well as our daily lives, and the broader technology discussion has increasingly turned to issues concerning politics, policy, society, ethics, health, law, and competition. What are the implications for Globe readers and their families, their workplaces and investments? Report on Business is expanding to bring answers and insight to our audiences across all platforms.
The successful candidate will bring a minimum of three years of newsroom or other journalism experience to the role, along with a proven ability to build and maintain relationships with story sources. Experience in the technology sector would be an asset.
