  •   Collaborate closely with writers, editors, photographers, and designers to build assets and social templates that resonate with social audiences
  •   Grow new audiences, track performance on Businessweek content on traditional and non-traditional social platforms, and pitch stories and content ideas to editors based on your findings
  •   Assist and train Businessweek editors on different digital tools and social platforms, encouraging them to post from their own handles
  •   Support the larger Bloomberg social team on social promotion of news content spanning beyond Businessweek

YOU’LL NEED TO HAVE:

  •   3+ years of experience as an editor or social media editor, preferably in a digital editorial environment or digital magazine environment
