Triangle Business Journal seeks reporter

A Triangle Business Journal reporter is the beating heart of the organization and the business, with the vital task of pumping news, information and life into our products on all platforms.

First and foremost, reporters must establish themselves as the go-to source of news, data and perspective in their assigned area of coverage. The top mission: to own audience, by every measure.

Beats include but not limited to covering the Raleigh-Durham International Airport, Law, Small Business, Personalities & Trends.

Our reporters must marry strong traditional journalism skills – source building, sharp interviewing techniques, strong analytical and investigative reporting skills, clear writing, document use – with online and social media know-how. They are expected to contribute both short-form (daily online posts) and long-form (print) stories to our news products.

Scoops matter. A lot. Scoops serve as the oxygen supporting the rest of our content operations and are vital to “owning” one’s beat. Only by being “out front” of the news can our reporters establish their credibility with their audience, identify the most influential newsmakers, and interpret the news on their beats with authority.

If interested, send resume, clips and references via email to Rebecca Troyer, managing editor, at rtroyer@bizjournals.com
