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.
About the Role
The Senior Writer is a critical contributor to our in-house marketing team, tasked with concepting, developing and leading campaign and marketing initiatives for The Times, and deepening engagement with our products.
As a Senior Writer, you will deliver exceptional messaging and world-class copy that is attention-grabbing and incisive while always being on brand and on brief. You’ll work with other Marketing Creative team members (writers and designers), but also with our colleagues in brand strategy, product marketing, product and the newsroom. We are looking for candidates who have talent and depth in writing across multiple channels or multi-faceted consumer-facing brand and product marketing campaigns. We want a writer who loves ideas — it’s our hope that you will help us create concepts that inspire and excite others, and present them effectively.
We will look to you to bring unexpected, yet deeply resonant thinking about how to market our journalism in this moment — how to communicate both the breadth of our journalistic offering and the value of supporting it.
This is a hybrid role reporting to the Associate Creative Director for Writing.
