The Green Bay Press-Gazette is seeking an enterprise and watchdog reporter, focusing on investigative and political reporting, and data analysis.
The reporter is responsible for local government and public policy coverage that holds public officials accountable and helps readers make informed decisions about their community, from the spending of their tax dollars to the safety of their neighborhood. The watchdog reporter has a keen eye for important details found in agendas, court files and budgets while understanding that the best stories are about people.
This reporter also will assist in monitoring other local government entities and the court system, the police department and sheriff’s office and focus on big-picture stories.
