  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and shifting deadlines simultaneously.
  • Candidates should have facility with AI and automation and experience in using it to enhance their journalism.
Preferred Characteristics
The successful candidate has a history of finding creative solutions when circumstances appear impossible. This person can point to examples of journalism "Hail Marys" — moments when innovative thinking, persistence and leadership transformed difficult situations into audience-winning journalism.
The ideal candidate is:
  • A gifted writer and editor.
  • A strategic thinker who looks around corners and anticipates what happens next.
  • Relentlessly curious and highly competitive.
  • Comfortable making decisions in high-pressure situations.
  • Driven by audience needs and newsroom impact.
  • Skilled at transforming rough ideas into compelling journalism, even on the tightest deadlines.
  • A trusted newsroom thought partner whom reporters seek out for guidance.
