• Identify and research newsmakers, policymakers, industry executives, experts and other influential voices who can provide meaningful perspectives and insights

• Conduct research and reporting to ensure programming is accurate, balanced, well-informed and grounded in the latest news and developments

• Develop interview concepts, questions and conversation arcs that encourage substantive, newsworthy and engaging discussions on stage

• Monitor breaking news and rapidly developing stories, recognizing when new information should change an event's focus, speakers or editorial framing

• Write compelling editorial and promotional copy that makes complex issues accessible, engaging and urgent for audiences, including program descriptions, event copy, social media content, news stories, interview questions and other editorial materials

• Work across teams to ensure editorial goals are aligned with the practical realities of event production, including timing, format, speaker availability and audience needs

• Support live events from development through execution, including preparation of moderators and speakers and making adjustments as news and circumstances evolve

• Contribute to digital, video and social storytelling around events, with an emphasis on creating content that extends the reach and impact of live programming

What You'll Need:

• Several years of experience as a reporter, editor, producer or journalist, with a strong understanding of how to tell compelling and balanced news stories

• Experience with research and reporting, interviewing and/or producing interviews for live events, podcasts, television or other editorial platforms

• Exceptional editorial judgment, with the ability to identify the stories, issues and personalities that matter most to an audience

• A strong understanding of politics and policy, with demonstrated interest in U.S. politics, global affairs and business

• Strong writing skills and a talent for making news engaging, accessible and urgent

• The ability to turn a broad or complicated topic into a focused, compelling editorial conversation with a clear purpose and point of view

• Strong interviewing skills, with an ability to identify the central tensions in a story and develop questions that produce substantive and revealing answers

About Us.

POLITICO illuminates the forces shaping global power. Since 2007, we have delivered intelligence thatanticipatestomorrow's headlines, not reports on yesterday's news. As politics has increasingly become the defining force of our era, our work has never been more vital.

Cabinet secretaries and Ministers start their mornings with our analysis. CEOs shape strategy around our reporting. Advocacy leaders rely on our insights to move policy. We deliver the straightforward facts and clear-eyed analysis they need to navigate the most complex political landscape of our lifetimes.

Our 1,100+ publishing professionals across the world's key democratic capitals-Washington, Brussels, London, Paris, Berlin, Sacramento, and New York-form the world's premier politics and policy newsroom. We tell the story of how power really works by explaining who wields it and how they plan to exercise it, connecting dots others miss and delivering scoops from sources othersdon'teven know exist.

Innovation has always been a core tenet of our story. At launch, we bet that depth would trump scale, that talent would trump traffic, and that politics would become central to modern life. In 2011, we made another bet and launched POLITICO Pro to help decision-makers understand the business of government, transforming both how they shape government action and the business of journalism itself.

These bets have made POLITICO the most successful digital news startup of its generation and the indispensable resource for leaders who shape the future. Today, we are a rarity inmedia: a growing, profitable, and sustainable news organization.

POLITICO is a subsidiary of Axel Springer SE, a family-owned transatlantic media company headquartered in Berlin and New York. Axel Springer is dedicated to shaping the future of journalism in the free world, believing that a free and informed society is essential to democracy. The company's guiding principles - first articulated asThe Essentialsby founder Axel Springer in the aftermath of World War II - remain a cornerstone of the company's foundation today.Learn more about Axel Springer.
