Are you passionate about revitalizing local journalism and shaping the future of news delivery? N2 Media Holdings seeks visionary senior news executives to lead our groundbreaking initiative to reinvent local news reporting, distribution, and funding across the United States.
Our mission is to create a revolutionary hyperlocal news production company focused on delivering high-quality, in-depth local news content via streaming platforms. We plan to produce nightly 30-60 minute news reports covering regional and hyperlocal stories for all 50 states, utilizing an innovative funding model, creative reporting structure, and cutting-edge technology to ensure financial stability and editorial independence. They will look refreshingly different from what you see today.
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE: We're a self-funded startup and we're pre-revenue. What does that mean? It means we're not able to offer paid positions at this time. So what are we doing? Potential investors are eager to see the caliber of talent we can attract to the management team, and we're looking for exceptional candidates who understand the vision and the task and are ready to hit the ground running when funding is obtained.
THE OPPORTUNITY:
Imagine being part of a team that creates a news organization from scratch, free of legacy mindsets, bad habits, and weak reporting. Imagine reporting stories that matter the most without worrying about story length, cutting things out that really should be left it, or having a great story go untold because there isn't enough time in the news segment. Imagine being in a newsroom that encourages and expects you to be the best journalist you can be, and wants you to innovate and deliver stories across multiple platforms. Imagine loving your job. To top it off, we'll offer you a “founding employee” equity position in the company, above-average salaries, and benefits that allow you to live comfortably while doing a job you love.
Yes, we're serious. We've done the modeling and crunched the numbers and we think this will work. When will this start? Hopefully, soon, but we want to be 100% transparent about what we're up to and what we believe we can accomplish. We're sure you have questions and if we talk, we'll answer every one of them.
If you're still with us, here's what we're looking for: Senior News Executives (SVP, EVP, Director Level)
