Job description

blockThe Southern Daily Echo is seeking a tenacious reporter to join our Southampton newsroom, with a focus on original, in-depth local journalism that gets beneath the surface of life across our patch.

blockWe want a reporter who is curious, ambitious, and at their best out in the community: meeting people, building contacts, asking difficult questions, and finding stories that would otherwise go untold.

This is a role for someone who wants to set the local news agenda rather than simply follow it.

You could be investigating an issue affecting thousands of people, door-knocking at the scene of a major story, uncovering information through Freedom of Information requests, covering an important court case or inquest, or spending time on patch developing contacts who provide your next exclusive.
