The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It’s why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It’s why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it’s why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it’s worth paying for.
Job Description
The New York Times is looking for an experienced editor and manager to lead our finance team, running coverage of the markets, companies and people that shape our financial lives.
The scope of finance coverage at The Times is wide. It includes news and features about Wall Street banks, giant investment funds, white collar crime, consumer finance and the stock market. It also includes coverage of the social and political impact of billionaire investors who are looking to use their financial resources to shape our world.
The subject matter is often complicated, and an important part of the job is translating complex financial or legal concepts into language that is accessible to a broad readership.
You will have a passion for financial news and be comfortable handling story edits in multiple formats, from breaking news and short items to longer-form features. A collaborative, enthusiastic team spirit is essential, as is the desire to bring scrutiny to a powerful industry. You will need to spot important and urgent news of the day and also be able to shape coverage of the biggest issues in an industry.
We’re looking for someone with thoughtful editorial judgment who can work with reporters who have a wide range of experience on the beat — serving as a coach, manager and guide in a constantly changing news environment.
This is a hybrid position based in New York City and includes regular attendance in the office each week per your departmental guidance.
Responsibilities
The New York Times is committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce, one that reflects the varied global community we serve. Our journalism and the products we build in the service of that journalism greatly benefit from a range of perspectives, which can only come from diversity of all types, across our ranks, at all levels of the organization. Achieving true diversity and inclusion is the right thing to do. It is also the smart thing for our business. So we strongly encourage women, veterans, people with disabilities, people of color and gender nonconforming candidates to apply.
