Santa Fe New Mexican seeks a general assignment reporter

The Santa Fe New Mexican, a locally owned and independent newspaper in one of the nation’s most interesting capital cities —with a thoroughly engaged readership — is looking for talented and ambitious journalists who can juggle a range of daily stories while tackling thoughtful, in-depth enterprise pieces for weekend editions.

Successful candidates for these fast-paced positions will be surrounded by busy, productive colleagues who care about good journalism above all.

Solid reporting and writing skills are a must. We’re looking for insightful self-starters who always have a sharp idea, most often focused on powerful human stories.

This is an excellent opportunity for both seasoned journalists and younger reporters hoping to hone their skills.

Job requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree and preferably at least two years’ experience at a daily newspaper.

• Strong writing and reporting skills with an eye on deadline and the willingness to tell stories in non-traditional ways.

• Drive and ingenuity. Our readers demand news about their community, region and state, and our job is to provide it every day. Their expectations are high, and so are ours.

Salary is negotiable, depending on experience and demonstrated ability.
