Colorado Press Association
Colorado Press Association is hiring: Reporter Sentinel Colorado Sentinel Colora
Colorado Press Association, Aurora, CO, US, 80012
We’re different. You are, too. Sentinel Colorado, a growing, trusted media voice, is seeking a reporter to join us in delivering great journalism on deadline.
We disdain the constraints of corporate group-think and instead reward originality, skepticism and creativity.
We publish daily at SentinelColorado.com, and on Thursday in print.
We serve the third‑largest, most diverse city in Colorado and the region. We’re a top‑award‑winning newspaper, always striving to improve our work. Our journalism colleagues regularly describe us as a newsroom that “punches far above its weight.”
We have a rare opening in the newsroom. Our staff, like our work, has staying power.
We’re looking for the right person to fit in with our talented staff and hit the ground running — or insert your own applicable cliches here. A 4‑year degree in journalism, or related field, is a must, alongside your experience at another paper.
In addition to juggling multiple deadlines for a variety of Sentinel media channels, the ideal candidate will be a self‑starter. We’re looking for someone who can adapt and learn in situations that are simultaneously demanding and rewarding. Most importantly, you must share our dedication to accuracy. If you have a fault, it’s that you try to do too much.
We’re a tight‑knit group of journalists who find camaraderie in our shared experiences, so the right personality is important. If you think you’re ready to make the most out of our opportunity, then let’s talk.
We offer United health insurance products, and the company pays 70% of the employee’s premium. Our PTO policy is among the best in the biz.
The salaried position pays $50,000 a year to start.
Qualifications
4-year degree in journalism, or related field.
A sense of humor.
Appreciation for the details.
Seemingly endless curiosity.
Dedication to accuracy.
We take what we do very seriously, but not ourselves.
Responsibilities
Develop stories, write stories. Repeat.
We write about everything, but this position will focus on city and local government, a wild beat out here.
Basic understanding of local and state governments and their legislative process may be helpful.
Accurate reporting and integrity in everything you do.
Please send a letter of application, your resume and samples of your best work to jobs@SentinelColorado.com
We’re a crazy‑busy newsroom with a lot of deadlines, so please don’t call or come by.
Full‑time
Salary: $50,000
