Still more hiring at The Palm Beach Post. We have an opening for a sports copy editor down here in South Florida. Here’s the listing at JournalismJobs.com:
We want a sports copy editor eager to work with writers to improve stories and who can write graceful and direct display type. We value energetic editors who can add to a collegial atmosphere.
The best candidates will have at least three years of experience on a daily newspaper copy desk. Page-design skills are helpful but not required. Enthusiasm for working with our Web-site editors is vital, and we will offer instruction in online editing.
The Palm Beach Post is one of the most-honored newspapers each year in judging by Associated Press Sports Editors. We have a sizable staff and lots of space. We cover four pro teams, four major colleges, the PGA and LPGA tours, Grand Slam tennis events and the Winter and Summer Olympics. We compete tenaciously on the biggest stories in South Florida and beyond.
