Full Job Description

A career at ACM is more than just a job. It’s a career that grows with your lifestyle.

As Australia’s leading regional media organisation, we offer meaningful careers across metro and regional communities. From journalism and digital innovation to commercial strategy, our people are passionate about work that keeps communities strong, informed, and connected.

About Us

With over 180 years of history, ACM’s network includes iconic mastheads like The Canberra Times , Newcastle Herald , and The Advocate, which was founded in 1890 . We operate across digital platforms, newspapers, magazines and events.

Our people are united by purpose and driven by impact, delivering trusted local journalism and storytelling that matters to the communities we serve.

About the Role

You’ll be working closely with the Editor and editorial team at The Advocate in North-West Tasmania to cover local events, break news, and generate engaging content for print and digital audiences across the region. This role plays an essential part in strengthening our community connection, driving digital subscription growth, and giving local residents a stronger voice. This is a hands-on role that offers both independence and collaboration, with space to grow your skills and career.

What You’ll Be Doing

Interview, research, and write accurate, engaging news content across print and digital platforms, maintaining an agreed daily output.
Develop contacts, rapport and trust across an assigned community within our region.
Attend local events, council meetings, court proceedings, and sporting fixtures to ensure comprehensive regional coverage.
Pitch fresh, relevant story ideas at daily morning editorial conferences and maintain an active personal contact diary.
Produce still photographs, video, and audio elements to accompany stories and enhance digital galleries.
Ensure all content is ethically sound, accurate, and compliant with legal/defamation standards while adhering to daily deadlines.
Collaborate with newsroom colleagues and engage with the community across digital and social channels.

What You’ll Bring

Deadline & Production Discipline (Essential): Ability to prioritise work, meet strict daily print and digital deadlines, and adapt to flexible or irregular news hours.
Digital & Multimedia Capability (Essential): Genuine interest in digital media, adaptability to newsroom software/CMS tools, and basic skills in taking news photography or video.
Qualifications & Regional Experience (Desirable): Tertiary qualifications in journalism, media, or communications, and prior experience in a regional newsroom environment.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

18 weeks paid parental leave (after 12 months of service)
Study support for work-related courses and qualifications
Exclusive employee benefits via Flare and Commbank, including novated lease and exclusive offers through workplace banking
Discounted health insurance through NIB and free, confidential EAP, available to you and your immediate family.
