Houston Chronicle seeks assistant business editor

The Houston Chronicle is seeking an assistant business editor to oversee energy news, one of the organization’s most critical areas of coverage.

We are looking for a strong leader to guide our energy reporters as they pursue high-impact journalism across multiple print and digital platforms, including FuelFix.com, the Chronicle’s energy news site. Our energy team – with reporters in Washington D.C., Austin and Houston – covers some of the world’s biggest corporations and most high-profile energy issues.

This is a demanding mission that demands significant coaching, writing and leadership skills.
