East Tenn. Sports Copy Editor/Content Manager opening

Join us in time to see the fall colors in the Smokies! If you want the benefit of living near the nation's most-visited national park with hundreds of miles of trails, trout streams, and beautiful mountain vistas, but still have access to the amenities of a metropolitan city (concerts, college football, museums, and more) in a state with no income tax, then consider working for The (Maryville, TN) Daily Times/TheDailyTimes.com, an award-winning multimedia outlet. Besides our seven-day morning newspaper near Knoxville and Great Smoky Mountains National Park, we are also a design hub for Jones Media, Inc., designing multiple other publications in the area. We have an opening on our Editorial Production Team, which involves copy editing, page design, and publishing online content. We need someone who has a keen news judgment; understands and loves sports and their presentation, excellent grammatical and writing skills; excellent knowledge of software and processes related to preparing content for print and online production, including Adobe InDesign, InCopy and Photoshop; and basic knowledge of Web-related technologies. The preferred candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in communications or an equivalent degree. He or she will be deadline conscious, objective and able to accept constructive criticism. If that is you, then send PDFs of a cover letter, resume and samples of your print page design and/or online work to amanda.greever@thedailytimes.com
The Daily Times is an equal-opportunity employer and part of Jones Media Inc., a family newspaper group with historic ties to Tennessee journalism.

 

Does the right candidate have to be rhino-hided too?

 

Oh, hush up. You can see the fall colors!!!
