Education Reporter

New Posted 22 February 2024 | Mason City, Iowa | The Globe Gazette

Are you a reporter with a passionate desire to hold our school systems accountable, tell the compelling human interest stories of students and keep parents on the cutting edge of news they can use?

If so, you're the education reporter The Globe Gazette is looking for.

From investigations into academic performance, funding and financial management to stand-out student and teacher features, we're looking for an experienced journalist who can navigate public, charter, private, urban and suburban school districts to tell the most relevant and meaningful stories.

Though some school board meeting coverage will be required, this is not a beat about meeting coverage. We're looking for a reporter who can generate several stories a week while juggling long-term projects and Sunday news features and analytical pieces.

Applicants will have a bachelor's degree, preferably at least a year’s reporting experience at a daily newspaper or equivalent media company and an unquenchable desire to tell the stories that matter most.
