Description
The Telegraph Herald, an award-winning, employee-owned daily newspaper in Dubuque, Iowa, seeks a talented business and health care reporter to join our news team. Be part of a hard- working, aggressive newsroom working to produce the best newspaper in the state, both in print and online.
We are looking for a confident journalist who can cover all things business in the tri-state area. The candidate will cover a mix of hard news and features, from developments in the area’s burgeoning manufacturing sector to the ever-growing retail scene to trends affecting economic development. The reporter also keeps abreast of health care issues, from forces shaping local providers’ ability to give care to business developments to helping readers understand how health trends affect them. The ideal candidate should be as adept at breaking a story on our website in the middle of the afternoon as on the front page the next morning. Investigative reporting and data-driven work is encouraged.
Our salaries are very competitive with others in the industry. In addition, our employee-owned paper offers the possibility of raises after one year, and current employees earn shares in the company annually that fully vest after five years, providing another significant financial benefit. Because we are locally owned, important decisions about our products are made by people who live and work in our community.
Prior professional or collegiate media experience is required. Prior experience at a daily newspaper is preferred, but we are willing to consider any talented journalist.
New graduates of collegiate journalism programs are encouraged to apply.
Application Deadline – May 1, 2025.
