The Miami Herald’s award-winning opinion section seeks an experienced journalist to write an opinion column and editorials. This is a staff position.
The Editorial Board is a diverse group of opinion, and opinionated, colleagues, steeped in state and local issues — or able to get up to speed quickly — but with an eye on how national policy has an impact on both. Board members are respectful of each other’s views and thrive on our deep-dive conversations, but we also move quickly when the news demands it.
The Editorial Board is committed to providing readers with a diversity of voices that represents communities throughout Miami and South Florida. We reach readers beyond the written word and pursue innovation. We use social-media platforms to reach new audiences and connect with our readers. For example, we produce an ongoing series of Facebook Live events called “Speaking of Miami,” where we talk to elected leaders making policy and others who have to live with those decisions. We home in on single issues with editorial series.
What you’ll bring:
A superb thinker and writer with a body of work that shows clarity of thought, a distinctive and engaging voice and the ability to articulate a position with fact and logic. Excellent reporting skills are imperative. We are looking for provocative, sharply written opinions that identify issues of importance to our audience in South Florida and beyond.
Candidates should have at least five years of journalism experience and embrace our digital-first approach. A background in opinion writing is a plus. The columnist will report to the editorial page editor.
Our next columnist will:
