We’re looking for an intern news journalist to join the Sydney industry reporting team of theMusic.com.au and Street Press Australia’s print titles around Australia.

We're looking for an intern news journalist to join the Sydney industry reporting team of theMusic.com.au and Street Press Australia's print titles around Australia, including The Drum Media, Inpress, Time Off and The Australasian Music Industry Directory.

The role includes research – on companies, events and individuals among other things – fact checking, cross referencing and all those other hugely satisfying journalistic pursuits. This position, which is flexible in its hours and dates, is for one to three days a week (as soon as possible) and while unpaid will provide invaluable experience and networking opportunities for those looking for a career in news journalism.

While you will be reporting on the music industry, this is not a job for budding musicians or those looking to launch their band, rather budding stars of the journalism game. You will be reporting to the industry editor, who has a horrible moustache but a fairly good taste in whisky and trains. Also, you must not think tabloid is a dirty word. Worship of Rupert Murdoch is optional.
