The person in this job is a key contributor of content for the Sentinel’s fast-paced Economy team. We want a journalist who can quickly post breaking news but also knows how to develop sources, request public records and use databases to write stories that are compelling, accurate and complete.

The ability to shoot photos and videos is a must.
