Buyouts Insider seeks managing editor

Buyouts Insider, publisher of Buyouts Magazine, Venture Capital Journal, and PE HUB, seeks a seasoned business journalist to fill the role of Managing Editor.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is passionate about storytelling in both new and old media.

The Managing Editor copy-edits blog posts, news stories and feature stories, writes compelling headlines and chooses artwork that grabs readers’ attention. He or she works closely with BI’s Private Equity Editor, Venture Capital Editor, and designers to produce two print publications: Buyouts (twice monthly) and VCJ (monthly).

The ME also keeps our PE HUB, Buyouts and VCJ websites fresh. The right candidate is a careful editor with an eye for detail, has excellent people skills, and is comfortable moving quickly between a variety of content management systems, including WordPress.

Fluency with Word, Excel, Picture Manager, PowerPoint, and Adobe Acrobat are a must. Familiarity with private equity and/or venture capital as well as experience with social media platforms such as Twitter and LinkedIn is a plus.

To apply please email cover letter and resume to Larry Aragon at laragon@buyoutsinsider.com.
