About the Opportunity
Senior Editor - Northeastern Global News
Northeastern Global News (NGN), Northeastern University's award-winning, fast-paced, daily news organization is looking for a talented Senior Editor to be based on Northeastern's Boston campus.
The ideal candidate is an adaptable and creative journalist with experience in top-tier media organizations, who will help drive innovative and timely storytelling, set news agenda and manage content production.
The Senior Editor must have several years of experience working for daily commercial news organizations. The experience should include meticulous line-editing often under tight deadlines, factchecking, ensuring accuracy and adherence to ethical standards, and helping reporters to conceptualize and shape high-impact stories.
NGN showcases news about innovation across Northeastern's academic and research enterprise, including but not limited to stories about discoveries, innovations across multiple areas, such as artificial intelligence, health, engineering, computer science, data science, and the humanities, to name a few.
NGN covers newsworthy stories across Northeastern's global system of campuses in the US, UK, and Canada. Stories focus on examples of leadership and innovation throughout the university in areas including experiential learning programs, research, teaching, and campus life inside labs, classrooms, and beyond. NGN also provides commentary and analysis by faculty experts on timely topics that captivate national and global conversations. It is a highly data-informed organization with ambitious goals and impeccable standards.
The Senior Editor must be capable of delivering accurate and timely edits across multiple platforms. We expect curiosity, accountability, creativity, along with a commitment to precision and speed.

Key Responsibilities
  • Edit a variety of stories including global breaking news, features, enterprise pieces, and articles focused on artificial intelligence, innovation, experiential learning programs, research, teaching and campus life, among other areas.
  • Edit stories to ensure they are clear, engaging, and accessible to readers.
  • Craft compelling, SEO-friendly headlines and captions.
  • Work closely with reporters to evaluate and refine story pitches, shape coverage, and maintain high standards of accuracy.
  • Help reporters develop reliable sources and maintain strong relationships across the Northeastern community and relevant stakeholder groups.
  • Collaborate with media relations, social media, and multimedia teams to enhance stories with data, graphics, photos, and video.
  • Monitor analytics and audience metrics to inform reporting and follow-up coverage.
  • Adhere to guidelines and fact-check thoroughly.

Minimum Qualifications
  • 5 - 7 years editing experience with a commercial daily news organization (digital or print).
  • Demonstrated ability to edit a wide range of stories with speed and accuracy.
  • Experience assigning stories and managing content production.
  • Strong source-building skills.
  • Experience using AI tools.
  • Excellent news judgment.
  • Experience interpreting public documents, filings, and data.
  • Ability to multitask, manage deadlines, and respond quickly to developing stories.
  • Familiarity with digital publishing tools is a plus.
