Reporter/Editor
The Duxbury Clipper is seeking a hard-working news reporter who wants to step up and take on some new responsibilities & challenges.
This position requires strong writing and reporting skills and a passion for community journalism. Must be able to report on the stories that need covering and uncover the stories that need telling - all under the pressure of deadlines.
Reporter will cover a range of town government fare, including the school board, ZBA and police news, but also be encouraged to seek stories outside the box. The job title says reporter but the right candidate must also be somewhat of a Jack-or-Jill-of-all-trades.
Position includes some responsibilities for copy editing, photography and layout. Person does not need to be an expert, but should be comfortable with computers (Macs, a plus) the Internet and certainly AP style. Familiarity with InDesign is very helpful. Editorial writing is also encouraged.
This is not an entry-level position, though we will consider applicants with strong college newspaper experience and journalism degrees and/or significant internship experience. If you are not from the South Shore area please indicate how quickly you would be able to relocate and how you would be available for an interview.
