About the Role
The Company is seeking an Executive Editor to join its Science News Media Group. The successful candidate will be a visionary journalist with a strong background in news, features, and multimedia, particularly in the fields of science, medicine, and technology. This role is pivotal in leading the editorial team, setting and achieving content goals, and ensuring that the organization's mission of providing accurate and engaging news is upheld. The Executive Editor will be responsible for directing news coverage across various platforms, including print, digital, and social media, and must be adept at managing multiple projects in a fast-paced environment. A key aspect of the position is the ability to inspire and manage a talented team, as well as to work closely with senior management to align editorial strategy with the company's goals. Applicants for the Executive Editor position at the company should have a minimum of 10 years' leadership experience in a news organization, with at least 7 years in digital media publishing. A proven track record in management, editorial strategy, and content implementation is essential. The role requires a candidate with excellent editorial judgment, strong writing and editing skills, and a deep understanding of digital media and emerging trends. The ideal candidate will be a creative problem solver, capable of developing innovative approaches to journalism that resonate with audiences. A commitment to the values of quality journalism and the public understanding of science is a must, as is an affinity for the mission of the company. The Executive Editor will also be involved in supporting the business and advancement teams, so experience in change management and a background in science, medicine, or technology is highly valued.
