NJBiz seeks a managing editor

NJBiz, New Jersey’s leading business journal, has an opening for an experienced managing editor to help with the day-to-day editorial operations at the company’s Somerset, N.J., office.

We’re looking for someone with at least three years of managerial experience at a highly productive newsroom and five years of reporting experience.

The perfect candidate must have solid editing skills and know AP style inside and out. The right candidate will have had experience working in a digital-first environment in which breaking news throughout the day is as much a priority as developing solid B2B stories for a highly respected weekly print product. Preferred candidates will have had some business journal experience and knowledge of the New Jersey market. Attending industry events as a representative of NJBiz is also a key requirement of the position.

NJBiz covers the breaking business news in the state, everything from economic development to health care, real estate to politics, professional services to manufacturing, and everything else that makes the economy work. Good, solid journalism that has impact and influence.

Please provide a resume, cover letter and at least three professional references.

To apply, go here.
