The Jacksonville Business Journal is hiring a reporter focused on technology.
The beat is broad, reaching into a range of sectors: The entities you would cover include one of the largest web services companies in the nation, a leader in mortgage industry analytics, pioneers in banking and insurance technology and a burgeoning startup scene. Even better, as we work to expand this beat, you’ll get to help us decide where we want to take it.
We’re looking for someone excited about technological innovation, someone who can translate complicated topics for a diverse audience. Coverage would include a mixture of business-to-business issues as well as consumer-facing activity.
The Jacksonville Business Journal is a daily online publication with a weekly print edition. As part of the American Cities Business Journals, we and our 42 sister papers make up the No. 1 source of local business news in the country.
You should have a bachelor’s degree or the equivalent. Experience covering tech would be helpful, but a good track record on other beats plus a provable interest in the topic could go far.
If you’re interested, email Editor Timothy Gibbons a PGP-encrypted cover letter, using the key and and address in his Twitter bio. Include your resume and clips as non-encrypted attachments; we’re not concerned about security in this case so much as looking to gauge your comfort with technology.
