Job Board

The Chattanooga Times Free Press is looking for a county government reporter who can look past the agendas and the meetings to find the real stories that affect people's lives. The topics of local government can get mundane for readers. So we need someone to come to this job with a polished work ethic and lots of creativity. We don't just want routine meeting coverage. We want you to write jaw dropping investigative pieces, compelling narratives, insightful profiles and hard-hitting breaking news. The Times Free Press is a successful mid-sized paper that can take your career to the next level. It's a financially solid company with a newsroom that thinks outside of the box. In the past few years we have won national awards for feature writing and been recognized for our investigative and international reporting. We have a news hole that would be envied by most papers. The newsroom has also invested many dollars in training for reporters and brought in Pulitzer Prize winning writers to train the staff in house. Plus, the city is a phenomenal place to live. It is one of the top outdoor destinations in the country and has been a magnet for big industry in recent years. There is a thriving downtown that is built along the Tennessee River. The city is also within a two hour drive to Atlanta and Nashville.
