Overview
Newsweek is the global media organization that has earned audience time and trust for more than 90 years. Newsweek reaches 100 million people each month with thought-provoking news, opinion, images, graphics, and video delivered across a dozen print and digital platforms. Headquartered in New York City, Newsweek also publishes international editions in EMEA and Asia.
Newsweek is seeking an experienced full-time Weekend News Editor to lead our coverage during critical weekend shifts. In this fast-paced, high-impact role, you’ll head timely, accurate, and engaging coverage of the stories that matter most to a U.S. and global audience—including politics, world events, breaking news, and trending topics.
The ideal candidate will possess superior news judgment with the ability to work independently or as a leader within a team, ensuring Newsweek consistently beats competitors to the most crucial stories and dominates digital news cycles. You’ll direct a team of reporters, pitch and assign stories, and oversee breaking news coverage through live blogs and rolling updates. You’ll also collaborate closely with our UK and U.S. news desks, working with other editors and senior leadership.
Your editorial creativity and technical skills will shine as you find, build, and deliver standout content—whether coverage involves a major court filing, Trump social post, international crisis, product recall, celebrity news, or severe weather alert. You’ll leverage technology and newsroom planning strategies to anticipate news, rather than simply react to it. Excellent SEO instincts and a commitment to visual storytelling are critical.
This role covers East Coast hours, Wednesday–Sunday, and may be remote within the U.S.
Mission
- Don’t miss any story that matters to our audience. Beat the competition whenever possible and secure Newsweek’s place in the Google Top Stories carousel.
