Texas Tribune seeks editor-in-chief

The Texas Tribune sent out the following announcement:

We’re hiring an accomplished newsroom leader to serve as The Texas Tribune’s editor-in-chief. This visionary journalist will guide us as we produce top-flight daily, investigative, data and multimedia reporting and plan must-see live events consistent with our public-service mission: to inform and engage Texans about Texas politics, public policy and matters of statewide concern.

This is both an inside and outside role. In addition to owning our strategic thinking about the Tribune’s multi-platform editorial output, the editor-in-chief will be a key member of our senior management team, with responsibility for budgeting and priority-setting in close concert with the product and revenue teams. And the editor-in-chief will be a public figure, hosting events and representing the Tribune and our industry at conferences and in speeches around the country and the world.

Please submit your application here by June 11, 2021. Email Tribune CEO Evan Smith at esmith@texastribune.org with any questions. We can’t wait to hear from you.
