The Montana Standard, a daily newspaper in Butte, is seeking a sports reporter.
The Standard’s award-winning sports desk covers more than a dozen high schools and Montana Tech, a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. Butte is a sports-crazed community, and Montanans call us the “City of Champions.”
The Standard is looking for a reporter who knows a vibrant sports section goes beyond a box score, someone with innovative ideas who can add a little energy to a veteran staff. The ideal applicant will have experience at a daily newspaper, but we’ll also consider recent college graduates or weekly reporters with strong clips. We’ll hire a proven journalist who knows how to develop a beat, write tightly on deadline, flesh out features and file live reports from the field for our digital platforms.
The Standard is the leading news source for southwest Montana and a digital-first newsroom.
Our coverage area includes some of the nation’s premiere recreation destinations. Hunting, hiking, fishing, skiing and camping opportunities abound. A hub for the regional economy, Butte also offers shopping, a vibrant arts scene and affordable housing.
We offer an excellent benefits package, including medical, dental, vision, 401K plan, and paid time off. We are an equal-opportunity employer. You can see our website at www.mtstandard.com and learn more about our parent company at www.lee.net.
