They will have an impressive array of sources who they can turn to for help penetrating agencies and making sense of laws and policies. They will have successfully navigated the challenges of gaining the trust of undocumented immigrants and will have shown that they use best practices for trauma reporting.
We’re looking for a journalist who has worked closely with data, engagement and visual reporting teams; one who deeply understands and embraces ProPublica’s accountability mission; someone whose deep knowledge of the beat and sound news judgment will help guide and elevate immigration reporting across our growing newsroom. Ideally, though not required, the candidate will have editing and management experience and interest in working as a player-coach on the immigration team.
