The Barnstable Patriot posted the announcement on its website Tuesday morning.
Still will be working as the special projects coordinator at the Cape Cod Commission for just under $59,000 a year.
Still began pursuing the post in early March when the newly created position was advertised.
Still's last day with the Barnstable Patriot will be April 19; that will also be his final edition.
Associate Editor Ed Maroney will serve as editor in Still’s place until a permanent editor is selected. Maroney joined the paper for the second time in 2000.
