Remote (Canada)
Compensation
$85k – $115k
§ 01 — The workWe hire reporters who like the doing of reporting — the cold call, the freedom-of-information request, the third interview that finally yields the thing the first two danced around. You will write longform work for our books and original projects.
The work is varied, and it asks for care: we approach lived experience and difficult subjects with attention to context, dignity, and the people involved.
We pay for reporting. Travel and source meals are not a fight — they are the budget. Our writers are expected to read widely and have opinions about what does and doesn't work in the form.
§ 02 — What we look for
01 Four-plus years reporting and writing at a magazine, newsroom, or longform outlet
02 At least two clips over 3,000 words you would still defend today
03 Comfort with first-person and third-person work alike
04 A subject or two you keep returning to
05 Interest in stories that move across formats
§ 03 — What we don't
Writers whose strongest skill is pace, not reporting
SEO-content backgrounds without longform clips
Anyone uncomfortable with a substantive edit
We read every application within two weeks. We respond to every applicant whose work we read, even briefly. We do not use ATS keyword filters.
