Our team is establishing a select bench of on-call Reporters to provide coverage during team breaks, peak periods, and unexpected news cycles.
We are looking for seasoned professionals who thrive on variety and are interested in a flexible, as-needed arrangement.
This is not a fixed-term contract, but a freelance partnership.
The Workflow: We will reach out with specific dates or "fill-in" shifts (ranging from 24 hours to 2 weeks).
The Expectation: Availability to step in with a few weeks notice to maintain our publishing cadence and quality.
The Scope: News and content gathering, filing, sub-editing, and overseeing digital publishing.
Ideal Candidate
The "Plug-and-Play" Pro: You have a background in reporting and can adapt to our house style and CMS system quickly.
High Availability: Ideally suited for freelancers with a flexible schedule.
Reliability: When you’re on the roster, we can count on you to meet every deadline with zero oversight.
Precision: You are a final-set-of-eyes professional who ensures accuracy even under a tight clock.
Remuneration & Logistics
Rates: Competitive day rates or per-article rates (negotiable based on experience/time).
Onboarding: Successful applicants will undergo a brief orientation of our systems to ensure you're ready to hit the ground running when called.
Join our Freelance bench and help us keep our local newsroom moving while our core team recharges.
To apply, please send your CV, a link to your portfolio, and a brief note on your general availability via email.
