The Washington Times is seeking a general assignment reporter to cover a broad range of topics focusing on cultural issues, trends, features and personalities.

The candidate must have the flexibility to contribute stories outside their regular beat. A strong, fast writer who can quickly file stories to the website and then develop them to give the newspaper’s readers additional insight is mandatory.

The ideal candidate will have earned a bachelor’s degree and have two to four years news reporting experience. Experience covering cultural and social issues is a plus. The ability to write clean and concise copy and to meet daily digital and print deadlines is a must.

The Washington Times offers a competitive base salary that includes medical, dental, vision, company-paid life insurance, as well as a generous paid time off program, matching 401(k) plan, and free on-site parking. Apply TODAY to start your journey with The Washington Times
