Description:We're seeking a Journalist to join our editorial team creating content about agriculture, farming, and rural life. You'll research and write engaging articles covering agricultural industries, market trends, and community stories for both print and digital publication. Agricultural background or genuine interest in farming is helpful, but strong writing and reporting skills are what matters most. You'll work alongside editorial colleagues to produce fact-checked, well-researched content on a regular deadline.
About this role:In this full-time position, you'll research and write multiple articles each week, cover agriculture-related events with quick turnaround for publication, and develop a network of reliable sources for interviews and background information. You'll assist with editing and proofreading, identify emerging trends in the sector, and work both independently and collaboratively with your team. Attention to detail and fact-checking accuracy are essential.
Skills/background needed:You should have journalism experience or a journalism degree, with solid understanding of AP style and newsroom practices. Agricultural background is a plus, but sincere interest in learning about farming and rural communities is more important. Photography and video experience is valuable but not required—we provide training for those willing to learn. Familiarity with publishing software and digital news platforms is helpful; if you don't have this experience, you'll be trained on the job.
Why join us:We believe our team members are our greatest strength. You'll work in a supportive newsroom environment with colleagues who are curious, flexible, and passionate about their work. We offer a comprehensive benefits package including health coverage, paid time off, and opportunities for professional growth in a stable, established media organisation.
