As Edmond continues its leadership transition to a fresh city council and new Edmond Public Schools superintendent, NonDoc’s Edmond Civic Reporting Project is matching step with a shakeup of its own.
After a year on the beat that put me back into the field I love following an overseas sojourn, I am excited to announce that I’ll be taking on a new role as NonDoc’s production editor as Edmond’s own Bennett Brinkman prepares to attend law school at the famously tortilla-tossing Texas Tech University. As everyone at NonDoc wishes Bennett the best after three years on staff, I am excited to take on this promotion — and to help mentor whoever succeeds me in covering the community of Edmond!
NonDoc has historically valued giving its young reporters opportunities for advancement from within, and I’m humbled that our team thought highly enough of my work as a reporter — and my experience in editor roles at the OU Daily — to consider me for this role. I’m also excited to welcome and work with the next journalist who will lead our Edmond Civic Reporting Project, and we are now accepting applications through Friday, June 20, from professional journalists looking for an exciting opportunity.
While we are immediately hiring this Edmond reporting position, NonDoc’s leadership team will also be considering all who apply for other potential journalism jobs in our newsroom. Those interested in applying should review our About Page and follow the instructions below. Again, while the job at hand involves leading community journalism efforts in Edmond, we will consider your application if other positions are available this year.
