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 editor with experience in journalism and international audience engagement, particularly with managing a news organization’s presence off-platform.
You will establish a vision for shaping and targeting our journalism for different platforms, and you will be responsible for understanding and developing new strategies, tools and workflows as those platforms evolve. Engaging our readers; monitoring competitors and news trends for story ideas; and providing regular audience insights to inform our daily and enterprise report are essential.
As an Audience Editor, you will work with editors across our Seoul newsroom on how off-platform signals from search and social can inform our journalism, both before and after publication. You will also optimize our journalism for search, promote it across our social platforms, provide regular performance insights and signal story opportunities.
This role will be based in Seoul and report to the Deputy Audience Editor in London. Please note that we will also consider candidates outside Seoul who are willing to move, with relocation assistance available.
