    Suburban Journals is seeking an entry-level sports reporter who will focus on high school coverage for the St. Louis area’s leading website, STLhighschoolsports.com, and for all of its related print publications. We want to hire a go-getter who can learn the area quickly, manage a beat independently and build an audience through nuts-and-bolts sports journalism and creative enterprise reporting. Some layout and design work will be part of the job, although previous experience in this area is not required. Multimedia skills are essential in this position. The successful applicant will produce high school copy primarily for STLhighschoolsports.com, the preps home for STLtoday.com and for other publications.

    Requirements include a bachelor’s degree in journalism or English, or equivalent professional experience, and some experience managing a beat. Interested applicants should apply online at:

    Just one question: This is with the Post-Dispatch, right?

    It is the same company (Lee Enterprises), and I believe one thing Cameron will be doing in his new role with Lee's St. Louis Sports Agency is coordinating coverage across all platforms (Post-Dispatch, Suburban Journals, and the web site).

    There is a difference, however. The Post-Dispatch is a union shop. The Journals, which Pulitzer bought about 10 years ago, are not unionized. The stlhighschoolsports.com website draws the two entities into new areas in terms of having P-D and Journal content in the same location.

    As a former Journal guy, I might be able to answer some questions via PM.

    That tells me who got the job I put in for in St. Louis. Hope Cameron is very successful in his new gig. StL is a wonderful city.
