From new Center City skyscrapers to sprawling mixed-use project in the suburbs, the region’s development sector continues to boom. The real estate beat requires building — and working — strong source networks to dig out deals before the competition and reporting both the dollar value and the broad impact of new projects, new employers and new players. We need someone who is driven to do the hard work of digging up news and intrigued by the challenge of both reporting daily updates and piecing together the larger picture of the forces shaping our community. From expansions, relocations and other deals, to coverage of important real estate events, trends and executives, a good Business Journal reporter owns their coverage, is meticulous with fact-checking and details, and is able to assess what merits a brief story or an in-depth feature.
The ideal candidate will blend traditional journalism skills — source building, sharp news judgment, interviewing prowess and scoop-driven reporting – with an understanding of best digital practices. We expect reporters in our newsroom to consider the presentation of their copy as part of the full assignment, including headlines, photos and other multimedia elements.
