WSJ seeks senior editor

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a news-savvy, culturally curious, entrepreneurial senior editor to join the newsroom team responsible for its live journalism and events. This editor will own and shape events such as the WSJ Jobs Summit and Women in the Workplace.

You will:

• Work on ways to extend the Journal’s live journalism to new audiences, from producing stories ahead of an event to harnessing new formats that could amplify viewers across social media, continuing the conversation long after an event
• Work with editors and reporters across the newsroom and around the world to develop sessions for different events
• Work closely with the conferences team on the business side

You have:

• Superior writing and editing skills
• A strong understanding of audience data tools and digital engagement across platforms and mediums
• In-depth knowledge of business, technology, culture and finance, with a track record of relationships with leaders across industries
• A love of research and reporting
• Experience coordinating and managing projects across departments and throughout a news organization
• A background in journalism and editorial content is preferred over traditional event management
