Why Work at Tallahassee Source?
Working at Tallahassee Source means committing to the civic life of Florida capital city. We cover City Hall, the Leon County Commission, Blueprint projects, Leon County Schools, and campuses from Florida State University to Florida A&M University and Tallahassee State College. Our newsroom values rigorous reporting on public safety, business development in Midtown and Gaines Street, health care systems like Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare, and the environment of our canopy roads and parks. We offer a collaborative workspace for people who care deeply about local journalism and want their work to inform neighbors across the Big Bend.
We are a small local newsroom. Tell us what you would bring, and we will talk through how we can work together.
Open Positions
We seek dedicated journalists, editors, and digital producers who understand the communities from Frenchtown and SouthWood to Killearn and the Southside. Our team reports on decisions made at the Tallahassee City Commission, the Leon County Courthouse, and the Capitol that directly affect residents.

Whether your expertise lies in investigative reporting, beat coverage, audience engagement, or visual storytelling, you will find a place here if you share our commitment to accurate, independent local news. All open roles are posted here when available, and we evaluate every applicant based on their reporting ability and understanding of our region.
