General​/Public Safety Reporter- Falls Tribune

General Assignment/Public Safety Reporter-Great Falls Tribune

The Great Falls Tribune is seeking a general assignment reporter - with a special emphasis on public safety, police, courts and breaking news - to join a growing newspaper with a storied history and a bright future in Montana.

This is an excellent opportunity for a hard-charging but thoughtful reporter who can jump on breaking news, cover public safety and pitch in on a wide range of coverage in the Treasure State's third-most populous city.

We are looking for an ambitious reporter who can handle multiple assignments and deadlines, urgently produce multiple stories each day, shoot their own photos and build sources in a community that's eager for local news.

This is a great opportunity to range across numerous beats, going where the day's news takes you while also finding opportunities to dig into deeper topics.

Applicants with some newspaper experience are preferred, but recent journalism graduates are welcome to apply.

The Tribune recently joined a network of six Lee Enterprises newspapers located in Montana's largest markets, lending it the reporting capacity of those five other newsrooms as well as a state bureau that covers politics in Big Sky Country.

Lee Enterprises offers competitive wages in a dynamic, interesting work environment with career growth opportunities. We offer an extensive benefit program that can be personalized to your needs. Our benefit program includes medical, dental, vision, short and long-term disability, company provided life insurance and supplemental life insurance. In addition, we offer a 401K retirement plan with company match. We also offer generous paid time off to allow flexibility to balance personal life and work.

This includes paid parental leave for new parents.

Lee Enterprises is a leading provider of local news and information and a major subscription and advertising platform, with daily and weekly newspapers and rapidly expanding digital products serving 114 markets across 25 states. Our core commitment is to provide valuable, intensely local news and information to the communities we serve.

Lee Enterprises is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We respect and celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
