The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It’s why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It’s why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it’s why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it’s worth paying for.
The New York Times is looking for an ambitious editor to run the National desk's investigations team, a group of reporters whose mandate is to produce agenda-setting accountability journalism.
You have experience editing and managing reporters and complex investigations. You can turn around quick exclusives and long-form narratives and collaborate with other editors and departments in the newsroom. You are comfortable with data, visual storytelling, audio and video. The team's projects in recent years have focused on a diverse range of topics, and have included a mix of long term reporting projects and quick-strike investigative work around emergent news.
The New York Times National Desk creates journalism that is revelatory and impactful, that is rooted in on-the-ground reporting and that deepens our understanding of America. Collaboration is key to our journalism, both within The Times and with local news outlets. We write with authority and intelligence, but we're also conversational. We realize the power of visual journalism and are innovative in new ways to tell stories.
This is an in-office position, preferably based in New York City and includes regular attendance in the office four days each week. There may be some flexibility to work remotely per your departmental guidance.
