GSA Business Report seeks an editor

GSA Business Report is looking for an editor to serve the Upstate business community in South Carolina.

The Business Report provides news and information for a local and statewide audience in collaboration with affiliated publications in Columbia and Charleston, S.C. The editor provides content, editorial direction, leads the newsroom and works with the publisher to serve a niche audience of small- and medium-sized businesses.

The Business Report operates in the heart of the Upstate, with fast access to three states, beautiful mountains and walking trails, a vibrant arts scene and lively downtown area in one of the fastest-growing metro areas of the Southeast.

The Business Report publishes daily email news, a biweekly print edition, special sections throughout the year and hosts the largest informational and networking events in the region. The editor is heavily involved in all of these products, including moderating a series of panel discussions held each year with area thought leaders.

Editors must have well-rounded reporting experience, solid news judgment and the ability to mentor reporters and writers and drive content for a sophisticated audience. Some managerial experience is preferred, but assistant editors or strong reporters looking for the next step in running their own paper also will be considered. Photography, digital and social media skills are required for this position.

Other requirements include a bachelor’s degree in journalism or English, clips from a general circulation publication, business-to-business publication or a magazine, and three professional references. Send resumes and at least three clips to scjournalist@gmail.com
