POSITION VACANT:

JOURNALIST

Byron Shire Echo newspaper and Echonetdaily online.

Part-time position a couple of days a week.

We are looking for an experienced journalist to step in and work a couple of days a week with our small editorial team in the Byron Shire, replacing a retiring former editor whose most recent job title was ‘factotum’.

We want someone who loves writing, with a keen news sense, an interest in and knowledge of north coast issues and some contacts, as well as the ability to keep it interesting for our unique audience.

We are 100 per cent locally owned, and despite the fact that NewsCorp has bought up all the surrounding papers we’re still doing okay, so you’ll have a job for a while if you’re any good.

Start mid August 2017.
