News Editor

Help define what the Valley News covers, how, and why — across beats, formats and platforms.

Champion ambitious, people-centered journalism that reflects the full life of this community.

Set the pace for a newsroom that moves quickly and with authority toward the stories that matter most.

Partner with audience, product and business leaders to grow our readership and how people connect with us.

Help decide where and how AI, new formats and new platforms fit into our journalism, deliberately, dependably and transparently and maintain our readers’ trust.

Be a visible, credible voice for the newsroom with readers, sources and the broader community.

Work directly with the publisher, other editors in our news group and the company’s senior leadership on the organization's long-term direction.

Our editors still report because we believe editing makes you a better reporter and reporting makes you a better editor.

You’ll get to choose which stories and beats can work into your weekly duties.

A journalist with newsroom leadership experience — you've run a desk, a section or a newsroom before, and you're ready for a bigger role. Or maybe you’re someone who has displayed a high level of reporting and you feel you’re ready for this role. We want to hear from you too.

Someone with a clear point of view on what great local journalism looks like, and the judgment to execute it under real deadline pressure.

A builder of people and their careers. You measure your success partly by how far the people you've led have gone.

A team player who wants to work with, teach and learn from colleagues at all levels of our company.

Genuinely energized by change and understanding the evolving digital news landscape.

A top editorial seat at a respected, award-winning local news organization.

Real backing from ownership to invest in the journalism and the people who make it.

A newsroom already in motion, with rebuilt digital tools, growing audio and newsletter products, and a company commitment to add tools where needed.

Competitive salary and a strong benefits package.

Life in the Upper Valley — home to Dartmouth College, the Connecticut River, and a stretch of New Hampshire and Vermont known for its arts scene, outdoor opportunities and its high quality of life.

Starts with people.
