Fortune is hiring : Deputy U.S. News Editor in New York

Fortune is seeking an experienced, creative, enterprising editor to run our News desk in the U.S. and help the executive news editor grow digitally across several verticals.

This is a key role on the global news team who will help shape how we cover the big business, economics, finance, management, tech, and career / workplace stories of the day. The ideal candidate is interested in working closely and quickly with reporters and other editors to produce engaging and intelligent stories and distill complex topics into well-framed must-reads.

As the global news desk includes sub-sections like Commentary, Real Estate, and Success (coverage of workplace culture, careers, and the future of work), this is a wide-ranging role that involves close collaboration with a range of journalists and editors. It’s a perfect fit for someone who loves being part of the daily business news cycle as well as finding unique and creative angles into the stories of the day.

As the Deputy U.S. News Editor, you will :

• Assign and edit several articles per day on a range of topics in business and economics, from an unexpected Elon Musk move to stock market predictions to the identity of an accused crypto hacker.
• Work closely with, manage, and mentor rising news reporters, interns, and fellows, helping them improve their pitches, reporting, and writing.
• Collaborate effectively with other editors on the global News team, including our Success and Commentary sections, and across other desks on topics like finance, cryptocurrency, tech, leadership, and health and wellness.
• Monitor and pull stories from wire services for important news that doesn’t rise to the level of an original article.
• Punch up headlines with an eye toward the digital audience.
• Ensure our coverage includes a diversity of ideas, perspectives, and voices.
• Uphold Fortune’s standards of journalistic rigor, accuracy, and fairness.
