Description:
The Maine Trust for Local News, home of the Portland Press Herald, Sun Journal and more, seeks an eloquent and confident journalist to spearhead our daily newsletter product.
The core job of the newsletter writer will be to produce a flagship daily newsletter — delivered to more than 50,000 inboxes and growing — Monday through Friday mornings. This writer and curator will work Sunday through Thursday, crafting a deeply curated, sharply written newsletter that showcases the day’s most important and interesting journalism from our newsrooms.
The daily newsletter is not simply a collection of links and we’re not looking for dry AI-generated summaries. We need smart, original writing that distills stories and infuses context and color where appropriate, using a conversational tone with a strong voice. The writer also needs experienced news judgement and an innate sense of what kinds of stories our readers care about.
Inclusion of photos and interactive elements will be important too. We want the daily newsletter to not only reflect the most recent news but also drive conversation and engagement with readers.
