The typical shift will start early, but needs, meaning nights and/or weekends may also be required.   

Responsibilities: 

  • Monitor emails, social media, community groups, and other sources to find stories. 
  • Monitor developing stories across news, social and other media platforms for key topics important to Arizona residents and people who work there. 
  • Efficiently and accurately write stories, several per day. 
  • Find, pitch and swiftly produce stories on topics of emerging interest, with a focus on what readers want and need to know. 
  • Ensure content is properly optimized for competitive search ranking and best practices for user experience. 
  • Create video using an array of tools to deliver trending and breaking news across platforms in realtime. 

Requirements:   

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in journalism or related field.
  • Expert at using social media platforms; including but not limited to Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, Reddit and Bluesky.
  • Command of concise writing, spelling, grammar and AP style. 
  • Good fact-checking and reporting skills. 
  • Well-organized, detail-oriented and flexible. 
  • Ability to multi-task in a fast-paced environment.
