What is a Calendar Editor?

A Calendar Editor is a professional responsible for curating, managing, and publishing event listings for newspapers, magazines, websites, or other media outlets. They research local and national events, verify details, and ensure that the information is accurate and up-to-date. Calendar Editors may also coordinate with event organizers and contribute to the overall editorial planning of the publication. Their work helps audiences stay informed about upcoming activities and events in their community or area of interest.

What is the difference between Calendar Editor vs Content Scheduler?

AspectCalendar EditorContent Scheduler

Required SkillsEditorial planning, content management, organizationSocial media tools, automation, timing strategies
Work EnvironmentMedia companies, publishing houses, marketing teamsDigital marketing, social media teams, content agencies
Common CertificationsContent management certifications, editorial trainingSocial media management certifications, digital marketing courses

While both roles involve scheduling, the Calendar Editor focuses on planning and managing editorial content calendars, ensuring content aligns with strategy. The Content Scheduler primarily automates and manages the timing of content publication across platforms. Understanding these differences helps organizations assign the right responsibilities and tools for content management.

How does a Calendar Editor typically collaborate with event organizers and other departments?

As a Calendar Editor, you will frequently interact with event organizers to gather accurate information and verify event details before publication. Collaboration with marketing, editorial, and digital teams is essential to ensure content is timely, visually appealing, and aligns with audience interests. You may also coordinate with the sales or partnerships team when featuring sponsored events. Effective communication and organizational skills are crucial for managing multiple submissions and maintaining an up-to-date, reliable event calendar.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Calendar Editor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Calendar Editor, you need strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and experience in content curation, often supported by a background in journalism, communications, or a related field. Familiarity with content management systems (CMS), event submission platforms, and basic photo editing tools is typically required. Excellent written communication, time management, and networking abilities help you build relationships with event organizers and ensure accuracy. These skills are crucial for maintaining an up-to-date, engaging, and reliable events calendar that serves the needs of readers and the publication.

Job description

Job Announcement
Managing Editor
About MBN
Middle East Broadcasting Networks (MBN) is the premier Arabic-first media organization that connects the Middle East and the United States. The company is in the midst of an exciting digital transformation and looking for energetic and talented people who care about journalism and the Middle East to join us on this journey.
We provide original and indispensable reporting, perspectives and commentary on the Middle East and how America's engagement impacts the region. MBN delivers content in both Arabic and English across multiple platforms, in formats including written articles, short-form video, newsletters, podcasts, data trackers and social media.
Our target audience is decision-makers, influencers, and residents of key capitals across the Middle East, as well as the next generation of globally engaged, digitally connected youth.
About the Role
The Managing Editor oversees MBN's day-to-day editorial operations, ensuring stories move efficiently from idea to assignment, production, publication, and distribution. This position leads daily editorial planning, manages newsroom workflows, maintains editorial standards, and ensures content is delivered on time, accurately, and at the highest quality. The Managing Editor serves as the operational lead of the newsroom, helping keep editorial priorities, resources, deadlines, and publication plans aligned across platforms and bureaus.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
The following tasks are considered essential functions of this position. Reasonable accommodation may be provided to enable individuals with disabilities to perform these functions:
Your job will be to set the agenda, assign the daily coverage, resolve any priority conflicts, and create a clear publication plan for reporters and writers for the week. Some the tasks include:
  • Maintaining the live story budget: a real-time view of what is being reported, by whom, for which platform, and by which deadline.
  • Makes the call on breaking news - who should cover it, when and with what resources.
  • Manages the workflow between MBN's Middle East bureaus and the Washington D.C. bureau.
  • Produces an end-of-day report for the Editor-in-Chief to go over stories published, what did well, what stalled, and what requires attention tomorrow.

The Managing Editor owns MBN's master editorial calendar, creating a strategic plan for tackling the news:
  • Maintains and updates the master editorial calendar across all MBN platforms and products - Alhurra.com, MBN Agenda newsletter, Iran Briefing, The Diplomat podcast, MBN Magazine, and the Security & Extremism unit.
  • Monthly planning calendar: maps out four weeks ahead to cover any major news events, policy moments, anniversaries[KOD1] , and editorial milestones considering available resources and publishing capacity. Raises any calendar conflicts, duplications between products or resource gaps to the Editor-in-Chief.
  • Produces a weekly forward-planning brief for the editorial leadership team: what's upcoming and what decisions are needed.

The Managing Editor enforces editorial standards for MBN 's daily output.
  • Before publication, the managing editor reviews and approves all editorial content- checking for accuracy, sourcing, tone, balance, legal exposure, and consistency with MBN's editorial guidelines.
  • Makes the final call on sensitive or legally complex content.
  • Maintains MBN's editorial standards document and ensures all editors, writers, and contributors are working from the same framework.
  • Conducts post-publication reviews on major stories, noting anything we should be doing differently, and updating the standards framework accordingly.
  • Ensures that bilingual content meets MBN's editorial standard in both languages.
  • Provides direct editorial feedback to reporters and editors on filed copy.
  • Supports the onboarding of new editorial hires - ensuring they understand MBN's standards, workflows, and editorial identity.

Other Duties:
Perform additional job-related duties and take on new responsibilities as needed based on organizational requirements and circumstances.
Qualifications and Requirements:
Candidates are required to have:
  • Significant experience in journalism, newsroom leadership, editorial operations, or a comparable managing editor, assignment editor, senior editor, or editorial management role.
  • Strong editorial judgment, news judgment, and ability to make sound decisions under deadline pressure, including during breaking news and sensitive coverage.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage story budgets, editorial calendars, publication workflows, assignments, deadlines, and cross-team editorial coordination.
  • Excellent writing, editing, communication, and copy-review skills with a strong commitment to accuracy, sourcing, fairness, balance, and editorial integrity.
  • Experience with digital-first publishing and multi-platform content, including written articles, newsletters, podcasts, video, social media, and other audience-facing formats.
  • Strong understanding of Middle East news, U.S. policy, regional impact, and issues relevant to MBN's audiences.
  • Professional proficiency in Arabic and English, with the ability to assess bilingual content for accuracy, tone, context, and consistency.
  • Ability to lead staff, provide constructive editorial feedback, resolve priority conflicts, and maintain effective communication across bureaus and departments.
  • Familiarity with editorial standards, media law considerations, legal exposure, corrections practices, and handling of sensitive or high-risk content.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, including occasional evenings, weekends, or extended hours based on news needs.

MBN is an equal opportunity employer committed to workforce diversity.
