Responsibilities
• Make sure CNBC.com is delivering all the top news of the day.
• Decide where to place articles on the homepages, packaging art and related topics as needed and adjusting headline tone as needed.
• Edit breaking news articles and help reporters and section editors improve their online presentation.
Qualifications/Requirements
• At least three years of editing experience.
• At least three years of daily homepage management.
Desired Characteristics
Candidates should be accurate, fast and cool under pressure. The job calls for strong news judgement and involves fast-paced editing and directing a team of breaking news reporters.
Detail-oriented planning and on-the-fly news calls make or break this job. Applicants need the ability to stay organized when several major stories break at the same time. Janet Yellen might be speaking while the president-elect is tweeting, and oil suddenly takes a major dip. That’s a Tuesday around here.
A background in business and/or finance journalism is a major plus. An obsession with AP style and light photo-editing skills help, too.
