Washington Examiner seeks energy and environmental policy reporter

The Washington Examiner is looking for an energy and environmental policy reporter to join its news team.

The high-profile and demanding beat means covering Congress and the administration, the regulatory state, and general energy trends and developments. This is a job for a journalist committed to the rigors and excitement of online reporting. It also entails contributing reporting and analysis to a daily newsletter.

The successful candidate will need to develop not only an understanding of complex energy and environmental policy issues, but also the ability to convey them to a broader audience in an entertaining and accessible way. The candidate should also have a firm grasp of how policy debates are at the heart of political conflict.

The ideal candidate will have several years of journalism experience and bring both the ability to write clearly and concisely under deadline conditions and a talent for developing longer form features.

Qualified applicants should send an introductory email, resume, and writing samples to: jlawler@washingtonexaminer.com
