Job Description:
The job of political reporter at the Miami Herald is among the
highest-profile and most demanding roles in Florida journalism,
covering the best (and worst) of local, state and federal
politics.
The ideal candidate for this position understands the issues and
the politics across the ideological spectrum has a passion for
breaking news and the skill to step back and explain what the news
means and how it will impact our audience.
The assignment is critical for both the Herald and McClatchy, given
Florida's importance in the national landscape as the country's
most populous battleground state.
It's a great time to come into the job: A new administration in
Washington is just settling in. Miami-Dade County has a new mayor.
And Florida is beginning an off-election year ahead of the 2022
midterms when there will be races for governor, the Florida
cabinet, and seats in the U.S. Senate and House, as well as the
state Legislature. No fewer than four Florida Republicans are
considered likely 2024 presidential candidates. Oh, and that
includes Donald Trump, now a full-time Florida Man living a short
drive north in Palm Beach.
The job requires an experienced and versatile reporter who loves
politics, can cultivate sources and break news in our multicultural
community as well as write analysis and develop enterprise. Having
a strong presence in social media is a must to reach the state and
national political audience. It is a high-reward, high-visibility
position that requires competing against national publications and
some of the best reporters in the business. Appearances on local
and national radio and TV shows come with the job, as does the need
to work well across beats with other journalists, including our
Tallahassee and Washington bureaus.
We're looking for someone who can observe local politics and
surface stories that will be relevant to a national audience while
also keeping an eye on the figures who make policy or make the
policymakers of Florida and Washington.
The successful candidate must be an excellent reporter and writer,
strong on social media, self-motivated and ready to challenge
political figures. She or he should be skilled in developing
sources across the political and cultural spectrum in multilingual
Miami. Speaking Spanish, Portuguese and/or Haitian Creole are all
plusses.
