Driven by the Journal’s coverage priorities and audience data, the team will focus on delivering the timely news our readers need, optimized for our online platforms. The team’s breaking news remit will range widely across subjects, from business to general news around the country and beyond. The team will operate in close coordination with other reporting groups across the Journal, often kicking off coverage before passing the baton. In addition to breaking news, this team will look for smart opportunities to join the conversation on other trending stories and topics.
We want an editor who is invigorated by the demands of a 24-hour news cycle and passionate about delivering top-quality stories and visuals to readers across our various publishing platforms. You should be a solid editor with a good grasp of WSJ style, ethics and standards, and publishing practices, and the ability to make independent decisions on deadline. Strong news judgment and a good sense for what our audience is looking for are critical, as is solid experience applying SEO best practices and writing headlines that will draw readers. You will have a leadership role on the team, coaching colleagues and helping other editors and reporters grow.
This role requires schedule flexibility — the desk will be operating from early morning to late evening, seven days a week. You will report to the Speed & Trending Coverage Chief. While you will likely start the job working remotely, you will eventually be based in our New York office.
