What does an associate editor do?

An Associate Editor is responsible for supporting the editorial process at a publication or media outlet. Their tasks usually include reviewing submissions, editing articles for clarity and accuracy, coordinating with writers and contributors, and helping manage deadlines. Associate Editors often assist in shaping content strategy and may contribute their own writing as well. They work closely with senior editors to ensure the quality and consistency of published materials.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an associate editor?

To excel as an Associate Editor, you need strong writing, editing, and research skills, often backed by a degree in English, journalism, or a related field. Familiarity with content management systems (CMS), style guides (like AP or Chicago), and editing software is typically required. Attention to detail, organization, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for managing deadlines and collaborating with writers. These abilities ensure content accuracy, quality, and timely publication in a fast-paced editorial environment.

What are some common challenges an associate editor might face when balancing multiple projects and deadlines?

Associate Editors often juggle several articles or publications at once, each with its own timeline and set of contributors. A common challenge is prioritizing tasks effectively to meet tight deadlines while maintaining editorial quality and accuracy. This role requires strong organizational skills and clear communication with writers, senior editors, and other team members to ensure everyone is aligned. Developing efficient workflows and being adaptable to sudden changes—such as urgent revisions or shifting editorial calendars—are essential for success in this fast-paced environment.

Position Purpose
The Associate Director of Social Media is the creative and operational leader of Dartmouth's flagship social media channels. Reporting to the Director of Social Strategy and Digital Engagement, the Associate Director owns the content calendar, publishing cadence, and editorial strategy across Dartmouth's institutional accounts on Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Threads, X, and YouTube.
This is a hands-on creative leadership role. The Associate Director produces and directs day-to-day content, develops creative campaigns for major institutional moments, and makes the real-time editorial decisions that shape how Dartmouth shows up across social platforms. The Associate Director sets the tone for daily content, ensures Dartmouth's flagship channels reflect the quality, voice, and ambition of the institution, and serves as the working lead for the Social Content and Community Specialist - setting daily priorities, directing content assignments, and providing editorial feedback.
The Associate Director must develop and maintain a deep understanding of Dartmouth's brand, voice, audiences, and institutional context - operating with the brand fluency and organizational awareness to make confident editorial decisions without requiring regular input from the Director on day-to-day content. This level of independence is essential to the role and to the team's operating model.
The Associate Director also serves as the primary liaison to MPG videographers and design/production staff for social content requests, and partners with the Data Analyst for Web and Social Media to make data-informed content decisions.

  • Demonstrated ability to absorb and independently represent a complex institutional brand - including the judgment to know when content aligns with voice and strategy and when to escalate, without relying on routine review from senior leadership.

  • Experience developing campaign creative for major institutional moments such as commencements, admissions cycles, or rankings announcements.
