About the Wickenburg Sun and River City Newspapers

The Wickenburg Sun is part of River City Newspapers, a group of community newspapers serving western Arizona and the Colorado River region. Our newspapers are small dailies and weeklies with big hearts and bigger aspirations, eager to tackle important stories and committed to being the strongest source of local news for their communities.

The Wickenburg Sun serves a community with deep roots in Arizona's ranching and mining history, where growth, development, water, education and local government provide plenty of opportunities for meaningful journalism. We're committed to telling the stories that matter to our readers, holding public officials accountable and documenting the people, events and issues that shape life in this corner of Arizona.

Wickenburg offers small-town living with easy access to the outdoors. Surrounded by the Sonoran Desert and mountain ranges, the area offers hiking, horseback riding, off-road adventures and opportunities to explore Arizona's history. Phoenix is about an hour southeast, giving residents access to the amenities of a major metropolitan area without sacrificing the character and pace of a smaller community.

This is a full-time position with benefits.
