About the role

Columbus Business First is seeking a hybrid, full‑time Reporter to cover local markets and deliver scoop‑driven business journalism. The role emphasizes building sources, breaking stories, and producing multimedia content for digital and weekly print formats. You will own the beat, develop industry contacts, and craft compelling narratives that help readers grow their businesses and advance their careers.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
