This is a full-time position working 3:00 pm-12:00 am ET five days a week, including one weekend shift. This position may be worked remotely anywhere in the United States.
Key Responsibilities:
Desk Command & Editorial Judgment
- Run the U.S. news desk during peak coverage hours, making final calls on framing, prioritization, and play.
- Distinguish decisively between stories that advance public understanding and those that merely follow the pack.
- Kill weak or redundant stories quickly-and demand better replacements.
Elite Editing & Rewrite Authority
- Deliver first-class framing on the most competitive national stories, identifying where Newsweek can add clarity, originality, or analytical value.
- Rewrite without hesitation: leads, nut grafs, headlines, structure, sourcing, and tone.
- Take raw field notes, transcripts, interviews, and exclusives and turn them into clean, analytical, tightly argued journalism.
- Perform rapid second-day and rolling rewrites that materially improve stories as facts evolve.
Breaking News & Hands-On Reporting
- Operate as a desk reporter when the moment demands it-making calls, confirming facts, chasing documents, and closing gaps.
- Personally intervene on high-stakes or sensitive stories where precision and judgment are critical.
Standards, Culture & Accountability
- Hold yourself and your team to elite newsroom standards.
- Provide blunt, constructive feedback and demand improvement.
- Mentor reporters and junior editors into sharper thinkers and stronger journalists.
- Take ownership when coverage underperforms.
Audience & Competitive Awareness
- Maintain a sophisticated understanding of how serious readers engage with news.
- Work with audience teams to ensure performance goals support editorial ambition.
- Monitor competitive coverage and push Newsweek to outperform, not echo.
Qualifications & Requirements:
- 7-10+ years of experience at a high-level U.S. digital newsroom.
- Demonstrated record editing breaking news, exclusives, and enterprise reporting at speed.
- Exceptional news judgment.
- First-rate rewriting skills.
- Comfortable making consequential editorial decisions independently.
- Proven ability to handle sensitive and legally complex stories.
- Deep understanding of U.S. political, legal, and cultural dynamics.
- Calm, decisive leadership style under pressure.
Salary Range: $100,000 - $115,000 commensurate with experience.
