Content writing Jobs in Aurora, ON

Do you believe in the importance of digital-first, hyperlocal news coverage?

Village Media — a proudly independent, digital-first network of local news sources in 26 cities across the province — is searching for a talented, dynamic journalist to join our NewmarketToday team.

Although our team of reporters is always chipping away at in-depth, enterprising stories, our main focus is to inform our readers about what is happening right now — and why it matters. Our newsroom is aggressive, nimble, and driven by a constant sense of urgency. We chase the stories people are talking about (or should be talking about) and tell them those important stories with authority and accuracy.

Think of us like the daily newspaper, without the paper — boots on the ground reporting where you live, work, and play.

Our Journalists :

• Have exceptional writing and editing skills.
• Have demonstrated experience writing breaking news and feature stories on a wide range of community issues.
• Report quickly, clearly and accurately and are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Have a track record of success in cultivating sources, including with first responders, and fostering community contacts and relationships.
• Aren’t afraid to ask tough questions when required.
• Are compelled to find stories that matter and to engage with our communities.
• Are committed to fairness, accuracy and transparency, and have impeccable ethics.
