A typical day for an editorial team member at Life magazine involves brainstorming and pitching story ideas, conducting interviews, collaborating with writers, photographers, and designers, and managing content deadlines. Team members often attend editorial meetings to shape the magazine’s direction and must juggle multiple assignments in a fast-paced environment. They work closely with other creative professionals to ensure stories are visually engaging and factually accurate before publication. The dynamic, deadline-driven atmosphere requires adaptability, attention to detail, and strong collaboration to craft impactful content for readers.
To excel at Life magazine, professionals generally need a strong background in journalism, photography, editorial management, and media production, often supported by a relevant degree or portfolio. Familiarity with digital publishing tools, content management systems, and photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop is essential. Creativity, interpersonal communication, and deadline management are key soft skills for success in this environment. These competencies are critical for effectively producing compelling stories, collaborating across teams, and maintaining high publication standards in a competitive industry.
A Life Magazine job typically involves working for the iconic publication that covered history, culture, and photojournalism. Roles may include writing, editing, photography, design, or archival research, depending on the magazine's current operations. Although Life Magazine ceased regular publication, opportunities may exist in digital archives, special projects, or affiliated media.
About the Opportunity
This isn't a traditional sales role; it's a chance to build and operate a hyperlocal magazine in your community, backed by the support of an established national company. You'll build something of your own: developing your market, your client relationships, and working to grow a recurring revenue stream.
If you're a relationship-driven seller ready to invest in building a business, this role blends sales, ownership, and community leadership into one unique opportunity.
Position Summary
We're seeking a Senior Account Executive (known to N2 as Area Directors) to launch, grow, and lead a Stroll publication in your local market. If accepted, you'd operate as a local publisher: driving revenue, building partnerships with business owners, and shaping a magazine that reflects the heart of your community.
Your first months will focus on establishing your territory and building your client base. From there, you grow an asset you own.
This hybrid position involves a blend of in-person community engagement and work performed from your home office.
