McClatchy’s national real-time team is looking for an editor to join a fully remote 30-person team filled with ambitious, high-energy journalists who track what people are talking about right now and anticipate what they will be searching for or talking about next.
What we’re looking for:
Real-time editors are the fastest members of this high-speed team. They know when and how to accelerate – and when to slow down.
A real-time editor must be able to quickly identify when a reporter should swiftly write a story on breaking news — or brainstorm a more nuanced and unique approach to ensure McClatchy’s coverage stands out.
The ideal candidate will not only have a strong grasp of what performs well for our team, but also the ability to identify new ways to expand the scope of our coverage.
From gauging story prospects to workshopping headlines to coordinating coverage across 30 McClatchy newsrooms to editing stories with a careful eye, editors are expected to juggle multiple tasks in often chaotic shifts.
Editors should thrive in a collaborative environment where both editors and reporters have a say in every aspect of our stories even though we’re spread across the country.
Responsibilities include:
