Sports Writer - Grand Haven, MI 49417 - Indeed.com
The Grand Haven Tribune is seeking a motivated, creative and detail-driven person to join its award-winning sports staff. The ideal candidate will be a strong team player who has a passion for sports at the high school and recreational level. We’re looking for someone who can not only report the scores, but also find creative ways to share the stories these teams and athletes have to tell, both in print and on our robust digital platform. Must be a strong writer with intimate knowledge of Associated Press style, be a wiz with social media and cool under strict deadline pressure. Photography and video experience is a big plus. Must be willing to work a flexible schedule. The position offers a competitive wage and comprehensive benefit package, including health care, paid vacation time, 401(k) and more. The Grand Haven Tribune is a family-owned six-days-a-week newspaper located in beautiful Grand Haven
Job Type: Full-time
Experience:
I'll give some insight as best I can since I work for a local paper nearby and we share content at times. A very community oriented newspaper with passion. It's locally owned which is rare and there are some pretty good sports teams in the area.
Grand Haven is an incredible city in the summer, a tourist paradise and much more quiet in the winter. Cost of living should be on average with what you should make there but I'm not 100 percent certain. Only 30-45 minutes from Grand Rapids for a big city feel and 3 - 3.5 hours from Chicago.
A good gig, the guy who is leaving is leaving for a bigger job at a bigger town so it's a great starter job.
