The Associated Press Business News Department seeks an assistant business editor for its headquarters in New York City.

This editor will primarily manage editors who produce the AP’s financial markets and banking coverage, as well as its Money & Markets product, which appears in hundreds of newspapers and on their websites.

The job requires an experienced and accomplished editor and manager. The AP wants an editor who is highly knowledgeable about the coverage areas, has excellent news judgment and is a wordsmith, and a manager who can lead and inspire editors and reporters and help them become even better.

Business News assistant business editors work closely with the deputy business editor and business editor and must be team players. AP Business News is committed to excellence, and assistant business editors are instrumental in driving continuous improvement.

Applicants must have at least five years of high-level management experience.

To apply, contact Deputy Business Editor Kevin Shinkle at kshinkle@ap.org or go to www.ap.org.
