What are the responsibilities and job description for the Reporter position at ACBJ?
The South Florida Business Journal is hiring a reporter to cover the dynamic hospitality beat. South Florida has one of the most thriving hospitality sectors in the nation and this reporter will be in the thick of it.
The SFBJ’s hospitality reporter will work with a scrappy, collaborative and energetic team to break news on the region’s sprawling tourism sector, including cruise lines, airlines, restaurants, retailers and hospitality-related real estate deals.
We believe that businesses don’t make business news, people do. That means there is a huge emphasis on building relationships to establish a rapport with top power players, and market leaders across this essential beat.
This reporter will be expected to break news ahead of the competition and build a solid pipeline of enterprise ideas and relentlessly grow their source base.
This often entails finding news at city halls, county courthouses or through public records searches and then tracking down the private-sector sources who know most about the business ramifications of what’s in play.
The Business Journal writes and reports stories that readers can’t find elsewhere and are willing to pay for.
