The award-winning reporting team at National Observer is seeking a skilled multimedia journalist to work full-time in our Vancouver newsroom. We're looking for someone who is passionate not only about breaking Canadian news, but writing colourful, analytical stories that give our pieces an edge with readers who are looking for more than a regurgitation of daily press releases. We're looking for a critical thinker who is able to write with context and perspective on tight deadlines, and time permitting, take on larger public interest investigations that show our audience why independent Canadian journalism really matters in an era of Internet information overload.
If this sounds like you, we'd like to hear from you.
