Reporter jobs in Buffalo, NY - 608 jobs

We're looking for a creative voice who can appear on camera for short-form social videos and write smart, witty social copy in a fast-paced environment. Someone who lives and breathes the Internet. This person will work across social platforms to develop ideas, create written and video content, and represent the brand in a way that feels fresh, culturally aware, and unmistakably us. You should be able to flawlessly write a caption, to do a green-screen take of a news post for Tik Tok, to assist with rollout for a cover and asking talent questions for social video. This role will report into both our Head of Social, Lucia Tonelli and Lindsay Peoples, EIC. The ideal candidate understands The Cut's tone - sharp, funny, curious, and culturally fluent - and knows how to translate that voice across platforms without missing a beat. They have great instincts, move quickly, and bring proactive ideas to the table. We're not looking for someone who simply reacts to trends, but someone who anticipates them and knows how to shape a conversation in The Cut's voice.

WHO YOU ARE * At least 3 years of writing experience, ideally in an online newsroom and experience in social channels for a magazine * Strong, engaging on-camera presence and writing voice. * Deep understanding of culture, humor, and conversation online. * Experience making and editing social content across multiple platforms. * Flexible, fast, and collaborative - equally comfortable ideating and executing. * Strong understanding of the Cut sensibility, tone, and audience * Enthusiasm, creativity, and a sense of fun around finding unique approaches and angles to aggregating news * Confidence in generating ideas * Comfort with multi-tasking, including writing, styling, being photographed and representing The Cut at events and meetings * Experience writing engaging headlines and teasers If you think you have what it takes, but don't meet every single point in our job posting, please apply with a cover letter to let us know how you believe you can bring your unique skills to the Vox Media team or get in touch!
