WSJ’s Off Duty seeks digital editor

Off Duty is looking for an editor with a true digital metabolism. Ideal candidates will have a feel for our subject matter—style, travel, design, food, personal tech—and the ability to take it to the next level across all digital platforms.

That might mean repackaging stories into more digital-friendly formats or creating special interactives (e.g. quizzes, flow charts). We want someone who can:  think strategically about how to archive and surface our evergreen content; grow traffic and engagement with our stories via social media; liaise with the Journal’s digital, video and social teams to execute projects.

Familiarity with programming a plus.

Please include a resume and cover letter with your application.
