From Voxmedia's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Vox is seeking an experienced editor to help oversee its distinctive coverage of American politics at a pivotal moment in the national conversation.
This editor will lead a team of journalists who explore and explain the world of policy, politics, and ideas for Vox’s wide-ranging and curious audience. Vox’s political coverage is dedicated to original reporting and analysis on issues, personalities, and movements that help people truly understand what’s at stake.
We’re looking for a dynamic, creative team member who can help Vox grow and adapt in a fast-changing political news landscape. They should be comfortable leading a diverse group of talented journalists, helping them develop and expand their audience as they cover a broad range of political issues. The editor should be eager to manage Vox’s political report with urgency and ambition.
They should also be highly collaborative and excited to work across Vox’s multimedia newsroom, finding creative ways for journalists to contribute to Vox’s signature audio and video news franchises, as well as its growing portfolio of newsletters.
We’re looking for a leader who closely tracks daily news, staying on top of major storylines and nimbly finding ways for Vox to offer distinctive coverage in a busy space. Our politics editor should be dialed into intellectual currents on the right and the left, as well as the concerns of non-aligned swaths of the electorate.
They should have a clear track record of guiding journalists to deliver sharp, original angles that cut through the conversation, publishing original pieces on crisp deadlines, while also creating space for longer, more ambitious articles that help shape the political conversation – and guide the team to find the emerging ideas that will shape those events tomorrow.
