WHERE YOU'LL LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY: Milwaukee is a city with genuine character — a place where big-city energy meets Midwestern warmth. Situated along the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan, Milwaukee's waterfront is a stunning backdrop for everyday life, offering miles of trails, beaches, and festivals. The city is internationally famous for Summerfest, the world's largest music festival, which draws hundreds of thousands of visitors each summer. Year-round, the Third Ward arts district, vibrant Brady Street corridor, and the celebrated Bay View neighborhood give residents a rich mix of galleries, independent restaurants, coffee shops, and live music venues to explore. Sports fans will feel right at home cheering on the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field or watching the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum. Milwaukee's deep brewing heritage — home to legendary names like Miller and Pabst — lives on through a thriving craft beer scene, and the iconic Harley-Davidson Museum is a must-visit landmark. World-class culture rounds things out, highlighted by the Milwaukee Art Museum, whose breathtaking Santiago Calatrava-designed Quadracci Pavilion is one of the most photographed buildings in the Midwest. Best of all, Milwaukee offers an outstanding quality of life at a cost well below many major metros. With affordable housing, friendly neighborhoods, and easy access to both Chicago (90 minutes south) and the natural beauty of Wisconsin's lakes and forests, Milwaukee is a city that is easy to call home and hard to leave. #LI-SM2 #LI-Onsite If you are a current Scripps employee, please do not apply on this site.
