Our music editorial team is looking for a writer to add to the Country music coverage and beyond across our network of sites, and is in search of someone who is immersed in Country music and on top of what's trending. The team needs a strong voice who can't quit consuming content and discovering music, and is ready to write about it.

The ideal candidate is a quick-thinking self-starter and resourceful writer who has a way with words and the ability to ignite conversations around the latest music news. You have a sharp instinct of what readers will engage with, are able to jump genres, and see stories beyond just the latest song and album releases, but also around human interest, viral, and lifestyle angles. You balance it all with a commitment to content analytics and thrive in a fast-paced, communication-driven team environment.

Primary Responsibilities:
• Write, publish and distribute both original and syndicated stories across all station platforms, focusing on owned and operated properties like web/app/social

• Understand reporting systems like Google Analytics and how to use data to drive audience growth
• Track content that's driving traffic and know how to maximize audience and engagement
• Strong communication with local stations to identify big-name guests, and breaking news to turn around content immediately--owning local news as opposed to being scooped
• Ability to interview artists, researching the right questions to create compelling content
• Be an effective communicator (beyond email), and possess the ability to maintain a healthy working relationship in an open environment with all levels of the local/central organization
• Other duties as assigned
