  • Liaise with Nine Sport in Sydney daily
  • Monitor social media and online networks for trending stories
  • Deliver to tight deadlines
  • Provide innovative ideas for compelling storytelling across television and digital
  • Cultivate a strong network of sports contacts
  • Perform other duties as reasonably required

Qualifications:

In order to succeed, you will have:

  • Experience in TV News and breaking stories with expertise in sports journalism.
  • Confident sports writing style, onair presence and ability to package for TV news
  • Strong relationship and network building skills including with sports media managers, teams, coaches and players
  • Seamless and crisp writing skills, clean copy, including match reports and filing stories
  • Reporting experience with an interest in sports presenting on the news desk
  • Knowledge in producing
