Sports/General Assignment Reporter Wanted
The Rocket Miner, a bi-weekly newspaper covering a large county in Rock
Springs, Wyoming, is seeking a creative and energetic sports/general news
assignment reporter to join our team immediately.
The ideal candidate will possess exceptional written and oral communication
skills, attention to detail and organization and the ability to manage multiple
projects simultaneously. The ideal candidate should also possess a strong
willingness to work in a team-focused environment and have the ability to build
relationships with sources inside the local sports community.
The successful applicant’s main duties will include covering local sporting events
throughout the county and writing feature stories. Covering other local news as
assigned is also expected but is not the primary focus of this position. Posting on
our website and social media is expected. Photography experience is highly
valued but not required; we can train as needed.
This is not a remote position.
