Job Description
The Chronicle and Thurston Chronicle are seeking a skilled photographer or photo editor to join our growing award-winning newsroom based in Centralia, Wash. The Chronicle publishes a robust print edition three times a week and maintains a daily presence atchronline.com In addition, we work to provide multimedia content to our social media platforms. We are committed to local news and work to provide as much of it as possible on a daily basis. The Chronicle is located midway between Seattle and Portland and within an hour drive to the mountains and the beach. We're fortunate to have Mount Rainier National Park, Mount St. Helens and other outdoor treasures in our coverage area, making this job a good fit for a photojournalist with a taste for adventure. CT Publishing, owner of The Chronicle, recently expanded with the launch of Thurston Chronicle, thurstonchronicle.com, covering news, events and sports across Thurston County. The candidate will also spend time at the Washington state Capitol covering the legislative session and other events when needed. The Chronicle is a family-owned newspaper with owners who are present and supportive of the efforts of the newsroom. We're well-equipped when it comes to cameras, computers and other gear, and our journalists are always provided with what they need to do their jobs. CT Publishing offers health insurance, dental insurance and other benefits. Reporters and photographers are reimbursed for their mileage on assignments. The estimated starting hourly rate would be $20 to $22 depending on experience. This could be negotiable for the right candidate. While The Chronicle is seeking a staff photographer, the photo editor position could be available to the right applicant.
