Reckon, a newsroom that covers issues that inspire America’s emerging majority, is looking for a national homepage editor to play an essential role in putting Reckon’s journalism at the center of daily news conversations.
You should be an early riser, focused on raising the visibility of Reckon’s stories by curating to our site and social channels stories from newswires and Creative Commons-licensed work, such as stories from nonprofit newsrooms.
You must have exceptional judgment about news of interest to young readers who are intensely interested in building a more equitable world. You will be our in-house expert on SEO; when it comes to writing our headlines, you should feel comfortable having a final say.
We also invite you to bring and leverage your own personal brand to become a trusted news voice on social media and to the public, representing Reckon on panels, at media industry events, TV news programs, podcasts and more.
We’re open to candidates for whom this would be their first editor role; we’re also open to veterans with experience leading news divisions. Salary will be commensurate with experience.
This is a remote position, although candidates in states shaping the outcome of the 2024 election and beyond are strongly urged to apply. This includes states like Georgia, Ohio, Missouri, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Pennsylvania as well as other regions.
