The ideal candidate will demonstrate an ability to break news on administration policy, the next farm bill, food safety, ag companies’ lobbying efforts and the challenges facing American farmers. You may go deep into pesticide exposure risks one day and explain government regulation over the meatpacking sector the next. Your primary focus will be chronicling this important beat for our influential audience in the public and private sectors. But you’ll also carve out time to report and write high-impact enterprise stories for our broader audience across all POLITICO platforms.
Journalistic experience in covering the farm bill, Congress, federal policy and/or agribusiness is helpful but not essential. Experience contributing to or developing newsletters is a plus. At least three years of professional journalism experience is preferred. Please include in your application a resume, a cover letter summarizing your interest and qualifications for the beat, and six to eight journalistic writing samples (accessible links or PDFs).
