Wyoming’s leading newspaper needs a crackerjack sports journalist to extend and enhance our tradition of ambitious excellence. In Wyoming, a state with only half a million people, our 30,000-circulation daily is the state’s biggest media voice. Our readers demand heads-up daily coverage plus metro-quality enterprise journalism. We deliver, with content that has won us the Wyoming Press Association’s general excellence award for the past two years.

Our previous sports editor has just taken over our city desk. Now our talented young sports staff needs a dynamic leader who shares our dedication to enterprise stories, reader-friendly presentation and online innovation. The ideal candidate could be an experienced newsroom leader or a first-time editor looking for a chance to show your ability. The Casper Star-Tribune aggressively covers the University of Wyoming, the minor league Casper Ghosts, the Wyoming Cavalry indoor football team, the annual College National Finals Rodeo, and high schools from corner to corner of the Cowboy state. We offer a strong package of pay and benefits, including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) and stock purchase plan. You'll live in a safe, friendly community, surrounded by Wyoming's outdoor splendor and incredible recreation opportunities. We're about a four-hour drive north of Denver.
