The Observer is looking for a reporter to cover the business of climate change and energy. We’re looking for someone with a passion for the subject and a clear-eyed appreciation of its complexity. The right candidate will understand the science behind global warming, the business of fossil fuels, and the markets for carbon emissions.

This beat will cover everything from the fights over solar subsidies in California to the SEC’s climate reporting requirements to Saudi Aramco’s market cap. It will also explore the science and business behind the race to build better batteries, develop sustainable agriculture and mitigate rising oceans.

We want a reporter who can put the news in context, connect the dots and has an appetite for covering one of the biggest stories of this generation (or of any generation).

Ideally this reporter will have:

*At least two years of experience reporting about climate and/or energy or have related experience

*A facility with writing both breaking news and longer enterprise stories

*Fluid and authoritative writing

*The ability to develop sources and break news

*A comfort with data and experience building their own charts

*An eagerness to find and pitch story ideas daily

*Interest in contributing to or writing a newsletter

*High journalistic standards, attention to detail, and the skeptical heart of a fact-checker.

Our headquarters are in New York City, but we will consider remote candidates who live in the United States.

The Observer is looking for a reporter to cover labor and management. This beat will cover work, workers, and what working means in 2022 and beyond. It will also examine the roles of employers and companies, and the changing dynamics between managers and those they manage.

The right candidate will be at home writing about labor organizing at Amazon and Starbucks, the Great Resignation and its myriad causes, the fight over raising the minimum wage, parental leave policies, the gender pay gap, and corporate governance practices. If you are interested in the future of commuting, pet insurance as a benefit, European board diversity quotas, strategies for getting a raise, the rise in employee activism, and the best (and worst) ways to reward employees in an IPO, this job is for you.

Montclair Local is seeking a full-time reporter for its Human Connections beat.

The Human Connections reporter’s job is to seek out stories that start with people, not institutions and meeting schedules — but will often involve discussions of how structures and systems are (or aren’t) serving the needs of Montclair’s diverse community.

The reporter focuses on the struggles, triumphs, solutions, artistic expression and culture of Montclair. The reporter’s job is not to give voice to the voiceless — but to turn an ear toward those whose voices can and must be amplified, in the service of reflecting a complex and varied community equitably.

We’re a small operation, so the reporter must also need to be nimble and flexible enough to jump into breaking news at any time, and may carve out other beats that are explored with an approach that incorporates the priorities described above.

To date, that’s involved significant reporting on arts and business — Montclair has a vibrant community of locally owned businesses, key to the town’s character and vitality — and how both intersect with the lived experience of those in Montclair.

Most weeks, the reporter will produce between three and seven news or feature stories, reflecting the principles and priorities described here.

The reporter will also help prepare community announcements and other material specific to MontclairLocal.news, as a shared responsibility with other members of the reporting and editing staff.

The reporter will take ownership of the presentation of his or her material online — writing strong headlines, seeking out or creating accompanying art and multimedia and positioning it on social platforms.

The reporter may also play a role with some community-facing events and engagement efforts on behalf of the news organization.

A reporter in this role will demonstrate and develop:

A commitment to principles of diversity, equity and inclusion, with practical application to day-in, day-out community journalism. The reporter understands engagement with the needs and culture of communities isn’t accomplished only with pieces about their specific concerns, but instead by exploring the ways any and all stories may intersect with their lives. This role isn’t only about the needs and culture of marginalized communities, but the reporter must be ever-thoughtful about incorporating and exploring them as a core value.
An understanding of accountability and solutions journalism, with specific ideas about how to pursue both in Montclair.
An understanding of principles of community organizing, and their application to community partnership, engagement and story development.
Insights into how arts, business and other beat reporting can engage the principles described above.
This position is a full-time role, with benefits including health insurance and a Simple IRA. The salary range is $40-44,000, depending on experience. Candidates of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans and women are encouraged to apply.
