Full Job Description

Location: Remote, with preference for candidates based in Florida or the DC corridor Engagement: Freelance, project based with potential for ongoing retainer

About the Opportunity:
A nationally active company and affiliated nonprofit foundation are seeking a sharp, well connected freelance journalist to expand earned media presence. Our work sits at the intersection of technology, public policy, philanthropy, and civic affairs, and we are ready to invest in a writer who can move stories from idea to print.

The Role:
We are looking for someone who can write compelling articles and, more importantly, get them placed in credible media outlets. This is not a content marketing role. We want someone who understands how newsrooms operate, who knows editors by first name, and who can pitch a story that lands on the page rather than in a spam folder.

What You Will Do:

Research, write, and pitch articles tied to our business interests, philanthropic work, and leadership.
Place written work in national, regional, and trade publications, including print, digital, and broadcast affiliated outlets.
Develop angles that turn corporate news, policy positions, and philanthropic initiatives into stories editors actually want to publish.
Build and maintain relationships with reporters, columnists, editors, and producers.
Respond to negative coverage with substantive counter narratives when needed.
Coordinate with the internal team on timing, messaging, and embargoes.

What We Are Looking For:

Proven track record of bylined work in recognized publications, or a track record of ghost placing pieces under client names.
A working rolodex of global editors and reporters across business, technology, policy, and lifestyle verticals.
Strategic instincts. You know which outlet wants which angle, when to lead with data, when to lead with a person, and how to make a pitch impossible to ignore.
Excellent writing skills, with the ability to write in someone else’s voice when needed.
Discretion. Much of this work is sensitive and requires confidentiality.
Willingness to operate on tight deadlines.

Bonus Points:

Florida political and business reporting experience.
Background covering telecommunications, broadband policy, nonprofit philanthropy, or emerging tech.
Existing relationships with Politico, Florida Politics, the Tampa Bay Times, Miami Herald, Orlando Sentinel, Forbes, Bloomberg, Black Enterprise, or similar outlets.

Compensation:
Competitive per project rates, with bonuses tied to successful placements in target tier outlets. Retainer available for the right candidate.

To Apply:
Send a brief introduction, three writing samples, and a list of recent placements with links to [email protected]. Tell us about one story you placed that you are most proud of, and why.

Language:

English (Required)
