International Biz Times seeks deputy business editor

The International Business Times, one of the world’s fastest-growing news sites, is looking for a Deputy Business Editor, based in New York City.

The ideal candidate will have experience at a respected publication running a team of reporters toward the goal of delivering a comprehensive, authoritative and forward thinking daily business report.

We’re looking for an editor who can help us recruit top quality reporters, manage, edit and write impactful, gripping narratives. Deep knowledge of Wall Street, banking, finance and international economics is a plus, but we welcome candidates with alternative backgrounds who can manage a large team and create irresistible business journalism.

We’re looking for experience both in the newsroom and in the field, a solid command of the best practices of American journalism and the ability to function well in a multicultural and multigenerational context.

Our ideal candidates for the position are either digital natives and perfectly at ease with the pace of the Internet. You must be a gracious, effective manager and able to mentor young reporters.

Please send a resume, cover letter and clips to Managing Editor Mark Bonner at m.bonner@ibtimes.com.
