MiBiz seeks a business reporter

MiBiz has an immediate opening for a full-time business reporter. We’re looking for a hungry, curious person to join our team, which covers business and economic news throughout the West Michigan region.

As an organization, we value research, asking questions, working with editors to hone story angles and performing rigorous fact-checking before stories are published. We prefer someone who has a journalism degree, 1-2 years of experience and a hunger to learn about how business works.

We provide extensive training and mentoring, which have helped previous employees move on to careers in journalism at major metros and city business publications, as well as PR, marketing and advertising.

We offer competitive pay, benefits/retirement plans and a collegial work environment.

Please inquire at editor@mibiz.com.
