Description
American Water Intelligence (AWI), a national monthly business magazine that covers the U.S. water markets, is seeking freelance contributors to track competitively bid water and sewer projects across the U.S. Each contributor is assigned a U.S. region in which to look for new projects and update entries in our database. Contributors are paid $35 per update and $75 per new project.
Day-to-day work involves calling water plant managers, engineering firms, city leaders – anyone with knowledge of a new water plant or an expansion of an existing facility. Contributors are highly autonomous and work with little direct supervision. All coverage is remote; candidates need not live near our office.
An ideal candidate would have some experience covering infrastructure, but AWI’s first priority is to find fast learners and hard workers who can work contacts for about 20 to 25 hours a week. There are no strict quotas, but performance will be assessed monthly. Journalism students and recent graduates are welcome to apply.
