What are the responsibilities and job description for the Campaigns Reporter, Morning Score position at POLITICO LLC?
POLITICO is seeking an energetic and enterprising reporter to helm our flagship campaign newsletter, Morning Score. We’re looking for a journalist who breathes politics and is driven to break news on it. Also key: the ability to distill and analyze the political landscape — via original reporting and smart curation — for a sophisticated readership made up largely of people who work in politics in some form.
This is a great opportunity to join our top-notch politics team ahead of the midterm election and into the 2024 election cycle. While the Score author’s main responsibility will be writing the newsletter for subscribers to POLITICO Campaign Pro, our subscription product for political professionals, there is also a chance to write stories for the core POLITICO site.
What You'll Need:
- Political reporting experience and a desire to work collaboratively with our politics and campaigns team
- Knowledge and interest in electoral politics, including redistricting, advertising, polling and other foundations of campaigns
- Organizational skills and drive to produce a daily newsletter
- A rigorous commitment to fairness and non-partisan journalism
- An entrepreneurial mindset
We are driven by our values. We are relentless contributors, disruptors of the status quo, collaborators, talent cultivators and DEI stewards. Our culture is defined by grit, total integrity and a prioritization on innovation.
We value our people. We offer a competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package, including health and wellness benefits, commuter and cell phone reimbursements, retirement plans, as well as work-life balance flexibility and opportunities for career development.
