    Job Description

    Assistant Editor

    + Midtown Manhattan (in office)

    + Full-time

    + $90,000–$110,000 + great benefits

     

    Join one of the fastest-growing digital newsrooms in the US.

     

    The U.S. Sun is looking for an Assistant Editor to join the backbench team. Since launching in 2020, we've built a loyal audience with bold, engaging journalism — and we’re just getting started.

     

    The ideal candidate is a dynamic journalist who thrives in a fast-paced digital news environment; is organized, and can juggle and prioritize content from multiple desks every shift. They must be a self-starter, and a team player, who can make important editorial decisions.

     

    While the role is mostly Monday to Friday, you will be required to work occasional evenings and weekends to cover events per the needs of the business.

     

    The candidate must be legally allowed to work in the US and must be available to regularly come into the New York office. This is not a remote position.

     

    Purpose of role: To help oversee daily, weekly, and monthly output from all the desks by working with reporters and editors to hone articles and ensure we publish world-class stories and exclusives.

    Key Accountabilities:

    + Play a key role in the ongoing development and execution of The U.S. Sun’s editorial and audience strategy

    + Help oversee each US-based desk (news, entertainment, consumer, sports, motors) to ensure we are the first to break stories and cover brand-building lines

    + Curate the homepage and tailor headlines/imagery for the audience

    + Offer editorial support to audience teams in story distribution and promotion including push notifications and newsletter approval

    + Ensure accuracy and high quality across all The U.S. Sun platforms including video, pictures, and copy

    + Offer support to desk heads in forward planning and strategy for larger news events

    + Provide regular training to reporters where needed

    + Oversee the running of the website, including making editorial and legal calls, in the absence of the Editor

    + Aid in recruitment and staff members’ career development within the company

    + Edit copy and brief reporters if needed

    + Work flexibly, including some evening and weekend shifts when required

    Key Skills and Experience:

    + Must have journalism qualifications and a strong background in news reporting

    + More than five years of senior experience in a digital publishing environment

    + Have experience managing a team

    + A keen understanding of the media within the US legal landscape

    What we offer:

    + Along with a competitive salary and excellent benefits including healthcare, vision, dental, and 401(k), the role boasts a generous PTO of 26 days, plus 6 public holidays.

    + News Corp also offers tuition assistance to outstanding staffers looking to return to postgraduate education (within the journalism field), and an impressive fitness center within the building costing just $1 a day.

    + The U.S. Sun also boasts a broadcast studio available for TV spots, interviews, or podcasts.

    + We also have a student debt retirement savings match program, in which News Corp use your student loan payments to earn the match in your 401(k) plan.

     

    Equal Opportunities: We are an equal-opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
