Politico seeks health care reporter

Politico Pro is looking for a reporter to join our Health Care Team, specializing in how state and federal policy and politics are affecting health care providers, and reshaping the delivery of health care.

Pro reporters must be competitive and able to give readers inside information they can’t get anywhere else. The ability to write fast and analytically is a plus, as is experience covering Congress or federal agencies. Above all, we want a reporter who is versatile and organized, can own the beat and can write quick, breaking news items as well as broader conceptual stories.

Qualifications

Experience in covering national health care policy, health care providers, and politics at the professional level, established ability to write clearly and accurately on deadline; proven ability to break news and handle a demanding, fast-moving reporting job.

Come help us build the story. We check our comfort zones at the door each day to foster innovation, and because we believe in each other’s ambitions, we come together to create something meaningful.

We value our people. We offer a competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package, including health and wellness benefits, commuter benefits, retirement plans, as well as work-life balance flexibility and opportunities for career development.

Let’s keep in touch. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter at @politicocareers and #meetPOLITICO for a deep dive into what makes us Politicos and our adventures. We’d love to hear from you!

How To Apply

Send a résumé, cover letter describing your interest and relevant experience and contact information for three references to employment@politico.com with this in the subject line: EDI0012.
