The Post Bulletin in Rochester, Minnesota, seeks a talented and purpose-driven reporter to cover its public safety beat. This premier position produces the highest readership of any beat in our newsroom. It involves coverage of local law enforcement and the judicial system.

Responsibilities Include:

  • Investigate and report on matters related to public safety, local law enforcement, and the judicial system
  • Develop in-depth, thought-provoking stories that delve into the application of criminal justice in the community, its impact, and its significance
  • Engage with sources and the community to build a network of contacts and gather information
  • Produce content that adheres to the highest journalistic standards and ethics

Requirements Include:

  • A bachelor’s degree in journalism or a related field
  • A minimum of three years of professional reporting experience, with a strong portfolio of published work
