Job Details - this job has expired, please see similar jobs below
The Atlantic is seeking an ambitious digital editor to join our growing audience-and-engagement team. The ideal candidate will have a visual sensibility, be obsessed with social platforms, and have a well-defined theory of how original storytelling ought to differ from one platform to the next. This person should have impeccable editorial judgment, meticulous attention to detail, and a strong sense of The Atlantic’s journalism and history. You should also have a creative and experimental approach to telling and sharing journalistic stories. Instagram fluency is a must, as is proficiency with the Adobe Creative Suite.
Atlantic Media Values:
Across Atlantic Media, generally, the firm looks for two “pillar gifts” in its candidates. In all of us, these are more aspirational than actual, but they are central in our intentions.
• Force of Ideas: At the center of Atlantic Media work are the ideas within our writing. We believe that ideas – to the good and not – have consequence. Our highest work is bringing rigor, insight, intellectual honesty, to that ultimate purpose of separating the bad from the good, giving voice, argument, and flight to the latter.
• Spirit of Generosity:Atlantic Media seeks in its ranks a spirit of generosity – a natural disposition in each colleague toward service and selfless conduct. Atlantic Media writing should be cut from the same cloth – critical on the merits but informed by charity and forbearance in measuring motive and personal character.
Atlantic Media Company is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
