Do you care about democracy? About people in power being held to account, without fear or
favour?
Would you like to get to know better our county’s most famous city? Well, we may have just the
opportunity you are looking for.
The Yorkshire Post requires a Local Democracy Reporter to provide public interest journalism for
the historic City of York. You will ensure that matters, decisions and issues relating to the public
authorities concerned are covered in a timely, impartial and robust way.
You will have an eye for detail, an approachable personality and a flair for storytelling - in words,

journalism, done for the betterment of the people and places we serve, is what we do and what
we care about.
