Part of your job will also entail keeping up with Houston’s hot restaurant and retail scene. You’ll cover new restaurant openings, as well as any change in strategy for restaurateurs. But most importantly, you’ll tell our readers why this all matters.
We’re looking for strong traditional journalism skills – source building, sharp interviewing techniques, strong analytical and investigative reporting skills, clear writing, document use – with online and social media know-how. Whatever the platform, we strive to produce content – original and curated – that is accompanied by perspective and context.
