The Acadiana Advocate is one of three interconnected newsrooms in south Louisiana, along with The Advocate in Baton Rouge and The Times Picayune in New Orleans. The team of reporters in our Acadiana Bureau is guided by our managing editor in Lafayette.
This job requires a reporter who is curious about what is important to readers in Lafayette and surrounding parishes and can use that knowledge, as well as digital metrics and social media, to break and report exclusive journalism. Acadiana has a strong cultural identity and as a reporter, you will have the opportunity to create sense-of-place stories around the area’s unique food, music and social fabric. You will explore a wide range of topics about the way Acadiana residents live, work and play – from French immersion to Catholic traditions to the area’s entrepreneurial heritage.
The job will require a journalist who’s always thinking of the next story – who has a pipeline of ideas and is eager to collaborate on sharpening and pursuing them.
