The Chronicle must be a leading voice in covering new and established businesses, with an eye for their global impact and how the waves of technology that emanate from the region ripple back here and change our lives.
Responsibilities
Find stories as they emerge, and help readers understand why the news matters to them.
Write engaging, original and thoroughly reported stories that not only break news, but demonstrate critical thinking about the topic.
Lead the conversation about technology and business on a local and national level.
Understand and use data. Crunch numbers and work with the SFChronicle.com team to think of creative ways to present the data.
Develop a wide range of sources, and work collaboratively with colleagues.
Report over multiple channels, including print, SFChronicle.com, SFGate.com, social media and live online events.
Think visually and coordinate with the design and photography departments.
Bring energy and ideas to the Business team and The Chronicle at large.
What will it take to be successful?
Three years’ experience reporting and writing for national or major regional publications, print or online.
Excellent reporting skills. The position requires a curious, enterprising and quick-moving reporter who can find fresh stories and bring appropriate news judgment. Be deadline-driven, and scoop-driven.
Excellent writing skills and a contemporary, intelligent voice.
The ability to shift from short online pieces to longer, immersive features — and to recognize which stories deserve which treatment.
Willingness to embrace a workload that includes quick-turn stories and features. Your byline should appear at least 2-3 times a week, either online or in print, with frequent front-page contributions.
Ability to think creatively in a fast-paced, evolving newsroom.
An understanding of digital storytelling, production and analytics.
Experience with social media and willingness to try new channels to maximize readership.
