Houston Chronicle seeks Fortune 500 reporter

The Houston Chronicle is looking for an energetic and experienced reporter to cover a diverse array of non-energy related Fortune 500/1000 companies, including some giants such as Sysco, Waste Management, KBR, Group1 Automotive and Quanta Services.

This reporter can cherry-pick the best stories from these and smaller companies for a great range of business news, enterprise and features. The successful applicant will be able to dig into a 10k, digest complex deals, and write compelling narrative.

Houston is a booming metropolitan region, home to the nation’s energy center and the biggest medical complex in the country.
