Tribal Business News seeks a business reporter

Tribal Business News has an immediate opening for a full-time business reporter.

We’re looking for a highly motivated, curious journalist to join our virtual newsroom to cover business and economic news affecting Indian Country. Tribal Business News is an independent digital publication formed to serve as a leading source of business journalism in Indian Country, which is in the early stages of a crucial economic and entrepreneurial renaissance.

At Tribal Business News, we believe in applying old-school journalism techniques in the digital era. We value conducting research, asking questions, working with editors to hone story angles and performing rigorous fact-checking before stories are published.

Our parent company, Indian Country Media LLC, also publishes Native News Online, a 10-year-old news website covering a range of important social, cultural and economic stories aimed at changing the narrative about Indian Country with fair and accurate reporting.

For the open position at Tribal Business News, we prefer American Indian or Alaska Native candidates with a journalism degree, 1-5 years of journalism experience, a hunger to learn about how business works in Indian Country and an eye for compelling stories. We will provide training and mentoring in business journalism and offer competitive pay, benefits and a flexible work environment.
