GateHouse Media’s Center for News & Design

The biggest, the best. That is what the Center for News & Design is striving to be. 

So what is a place like this, you may ask yourself. Well, that's a good question. GateHouse Media is a publication company that owns over 600 publications across the country. Our Center for News & Design, which is a part of GateHouse, designs for about 245 weekly and daily publications. We the biggest (in terms of publications that are designed here [245], staffing [more than 200 designers], and pages per week [11,000]) and we're quickly becoming the best.

The Dallas Morning News thinks so: we are going to be starting to design their publications this spring!

We've only been around since 2014 so it's a bit much to boast. But we do have some things to brag about for our people:

• Promotions, career advancement
• Pay for referrals
• Creative environment
• Leadership training and development
• Monthly team building activities and social events
• Ping pong
• Food trucks

Bottom line is this: if you're interested in visual storytelling, strong journalism and page design, this is a great place to begin your career.
