WP Tavern is looking for talented writers who are eager to report on WordPress news every day. We cover a wide range of topics, including (but not limited to) the Gutenberg project, core development, e-commerce, community, plugin and theme ecosystems, events, and the wider world of open source software. We are looking for writers who can inform, engage, and inspire readers with their work.

The position requires the ability to discern the immediacy of news stories that need to be told, attention to accuracy, and the ability to cultivate sources. Applicants must be willing to engage positively with the WordPress community and maintain an unwavering commitment to serve the public interest, without corporate influence. A deep knowledge of the WordPress ecosystem and the Gutenberg project is helpful for this position.

WP Tavern is WordPress’ newspaper of record. We are looking for writers who can approach this community with a critical and unbiased point of view, preserving the independent and provocative spirit of the Tavern. Applicants should use the contact form to get in touch, and be prepared to submit at least three writing samples for consideration.
