SFGATE’s Post

🚨 JOB NEWS 🚨 SFGATE is expanding again! We just opened 2 new roles! 🌲 North Coast Contributing Editor (20hrs per week, $45K-$50K) ✍ Contributing News Editor (20hrs per week, $45K-$50K) This expands our newsroom to 55 journalists, we've created 34 new jobs since 2021 and had 0 layoffs during that span. Let's start with the North Coast Contributing Editor! This is such a cool role! We're looking for a contributing editor (20hrs/wk) to cover the coast and far north of the state generally. We want a couple features a week and are looking for writers with deep ties to the area who can challenge readers’ understanding of a place they love to visit or already live in. We want locals (or near-locals), who understand the history of where they live, and the implications of changes to it. They should be able to provide an expert's perspective on these places that readers can't get elsewhere. And we want someone who can shine a light on an important place to a community that otherwise doesn't get a lot of shine. What about the Contributing News Editor? Glad you asked: We write lots of very ambitious pieces at SFGATE and those ambitious pieces need a steady hand guiding them throughout the editing process — whether they're investigations, FOIA deep dives or about a sensitive topic. If you're super comfortable navigating all of those and have a bunch of writers who will be waiting in line to talk about how you’re the best editor they've ever had, you should apply. These hires will give us 43 incredibly talented journalists providing best in class coverage of the Bay Area, but also 12 others covering the rest of CA + Hawaii, including in a lot of complete media deserts.
