The Miami Herald seeks an aggressive senior political correspondent to uncover compelling, insightful and newsy angles to the biggest political story of the next two years – the run-up to the 2024 presidential election and Florida’s role in it.
This correspondent should have a proven track record of generating ahead-of-the-curve story ideas, cultivating the sources necessary to break exclusives in an extremely competitive landscape, and a flair for writing authoritative, relevant stories that draw readers who may not live and breathe politics the way this reporter does.
