The Maidenhead Advertiser and Slough &
Windsor Express are looking for a trainee
reporter to join the news team.
The three weekly titles are owned by Baylis Media Ltd, a multimedia news organisation based in Maidenhead and covering the
East Berkshire and South Buckinghamshire area.
The Slough and South Bucks Express was named Weekly
Newspaper of the Year (Free) at the London and the South of
England Media Awards in 2013 and the Windsor, Ascot and Eton
Express was highly commended in the same category in 2014.
Owned by a charitable trust, we are one of the few truly
independent newspaper publishers left in the country.
As a trainee reporter, you will have the opportunity to cover your
own news patch in a varied role which involves everything from
breaking news to court cases, human interest features, in-depth
interviews and more.
You will also be given the chance to develop your multi-media skills
and use social media to engage with our audience.
Candidates must have an NCTJ pre-entry certificate, a car and a
clean driving licence.
We offer an attractive employment package including a
competitive starting salary, five weeks of annual leave and the
opportunity to complete the NQJ certificate in a supportive
