Sports Editor | Bryan, Ohio

SPORTS EDITOR
The Bryan Times, a 7,000 family-owned daily in northwest Ohio, is seeking a Sports Editor to join its community-focused newsroom staff. We are looking for an experienced editor who can help find and tell the local stories that are important to our readers.

Our staff-written coverage is almost exclusively focused on nine area high schools. The department currently consists of the sports editor, one full-time reporter, two part-time reporters and several freelance photographers. We also work cooperatively with our sister publication, The Northwest Signal. Additional editing help is provided by the news desk on particularly heavy nights.

In addition to being a strong reporter and writer, the successful candidate will have design, copy editing and scheduling experience.

During the past year, the section has shown steady improvement, creating a number of recurring features, honor rolls, all-area teams and other special touches that have been a hit with our readers. In the past month, we have added several promising reporters to the team who are looking forward to working with an editor who can lead them to even better things.

If you are that editor, please send your resume, three best writing clips and several page examples to Editor Rich Griffis at rgriffis@bryantimes.com. No phone calls please.
