After seven years in business, The Capitolist is looking to expand and enhance our coverage of news and events at Florida’s nexus of business, policy and politics. Our goal is to help our readers understand the people, the companies and the industry segments that are driving Florida’s growth and interact with our state’s policymakers, opinion leaders, and political community.
In support of that mission, we’re looking for an experienced reporter to join our Tallahassee-based news team.
The ideal candidate will have some experience in journalism, agency, corporate communications or similar areas with a communications focus, an understanding of how business and government agencies work, and how they come together to impact our state’s economic outlook.
Excellent writing skills are an absolute must.
The ideal candidate should be savvy with social media (Twitter, Facebook, etc.), Chat GPT and similar tools and know how to get the most out of a smartphone’s camera system.
The position will be based in Tallahassee and will require flexibility in work hours as public meetings and events dictate.
Candidates should send a cover letter, resume, and writing samples, along with compensation history and requirements, to:
