Responsibilities
Consistently have ideas — you’ll be given a blank canvas to tell stories that matter across a broad range of categories for a pocket of national parks that many people care deeply about.
Be autonomous — this is a remote position that comes with a lot of trust, to both keep an editorial calendar, meet deadlines, understand analytics and communicate with the copy and photo desks in SF.
Have a fantastic network — a big part of this role is being someone who already has the network to be able to tell these stories.
Be consistent — you’ll be writing two features a week on average.
