Phoenix Biz Journal seeks finance and economics reporter

The Phoenix Business Journal, a thriving and growing news organization, is looking for a reporter who can break news before it happens and tell readers what it means on all of our platforms — web, social media, video and print.

Our reporters own and expand their audiences by every measure. We’re looking for strong journalism skills – source building, sharp interviewing techniques, strong analytical and investigative reporting skills, clear writing, document use – with online and social media know-how. We want an aggressive individual who thrives on delivering the news first to our executive audience.

Email resumé and writing samples to Editor-n-Chief Ilana Lowery ilowery@bizjournals.com. No phone calls please.
