\nWe will stop accepting applications for this role on Tuesday, August 13 at 9AM ET. \n\nWe’re looking for an ambitious reporter to take on compelling stories grounded in the South but with national resonance, designed to surprise, reveal, inform and bring about change.\n\nThe South has been the focus of some of ProPublica’s most ambitious coverage. Our investigations have drawn attention to environmental injustice in Alabama, voter registration challenges in Georgia, attacks on gender-affirming care in South Carolina and the underrepresentation of women in legislatures across the Southeast. Our Local Reporting Network partners have also produced work that has had impact in the region.\n\nYou’ll join our team of reporters covering the South with a focus on Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee.\n\nWe’re looking for a reporter who:\n\n\n* Has produced original, investigative stories in the South. You don’t have to be an “investigative reporter,” but your work should show a dedication to digging for the truth.\n\n* Aches to report stories that are both important and powerfully told, and has a vision for how they’d cover the South.\n\n* Has experience with or ideas about all the possible ways we can do journalism now: from deep data digging to working with readers to marrying narrative and investigative forms.\n\n* Wants to bring an accountability lens to the issues of the day through quick investigations reported over a couple of weeks and longer projects that you dig into for a few months (or more).\n\n* Really likes working with others. We are a highly collaborative newsroom, both across our team and with other news organizations regionally and nationally. We believe we do our best work together.\n\n\n\n\nThis job is full time and includes benefits. This position is based in Atlanta, but we’re open to remote candidates in the region (Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee). Applicants must be eligible to work in the U.S.\n\nThe expected salary range for this position is $90,000 to $130,000.\n\nThis is our best estimate of what we expect to pay for this position. The final salary figure will take into account a person’s experience, accomplishment and location. ProPublica is committed to paying its staff equitably, and these ranges should not be considered career salary limits or caps.\n\nIf all of this sounds exciting to you, you can apply using this form.\n\nQuestions?
