You will have the skills to rewrite top stories to the highest quality, and the newsroom credibility to command respect from reporters and editors at all levels. You will also be helping to shape the file by working with other editors to allocate resources so that we are producing exclusives, insightful analysis, enterprise stories and depth across the file.
