News Curation Lead Editor

BuzzFeed News is looking for a thoughtful and experienced social media strategist and manager to help lead our News Curation team, the newsroom's hub for distribution on and off platform. The team does everything from running social media accounts to working with editors on headlines and promotion plans for our biggest stories. This is the chance to grow as a leader alongside an exciting and creative team. You will easily move between directing the team through breaking news situations — whether that's assigning a push alert, building a Twitter moment, or packaging a video — and helping them prepare strategies and promotion plans for garnering the biggest reach for our award-winning journalism. Your day will involve managing the News Curation team, guiding them through carrying out our strategy on all of the platforms where BuzzFeed News lives, and thinking of how to reach new audiences. You will also work with desk editors and reporters to ensure that stories are packaged in a way that travels well online. This is a full-time position working evenings, and a dream job for a multitasker passionate about online platforms. You will report to the Director of News Curation and work closely together to oversee operations. We offer a great benefits package and a stock option program.
