Sports page designer, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Little Rock

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in Little Rock, is seeking a versatile sports designer to join our desk. Consideration will be given to applicants who can turn on a computer, operate a mouse, spell the word CAT, follow directions, write cohesive sentences and know the difference between a football and a tennis racket.

The primary responsibility is to design pages. We pride ourselves on having a versatile staff that works as a team where it is important to work together to make deadline each night.

This is not a hub. This is not designing 30 pages for six papers in one night, although there are some nights where changes will be required for other editions so good time management and multitasking are keen attributes.

The job requires night and weekend work. Working remotely is not an option at the time.

Little Rock is the capital city of Arkansas with a population of nearly 600,000 in the metro area. There are plenty of concerts and entertainment options inside the city, and various state parks and outdoor activities are within an hour’s drive. Many current and past staff members enjoy the city's River Market area just a few blocks away from the newspaper office to appease their social tastes.

Applicants should submit a resume, cover letter and design samples to Assistant Sports Editor Frankie Frisco at ffrisco@adgnewsroom.com. References will be required upon request.
