News Editor - Maternity Cover

Do you look at the world and think things could be better? Would you like to spend your days writing about the organisations and individuals who are trying to bring about that change? Third Sector, the UK’s leading title for the voluntary and not-for-profit sector, is seeking a news editor to join its tight-knit team on a fixed-term maternity cover contract. Our readers are senior managers in charities: the chief executives, the fundraisers, the comms managers and the change-makers in government and local communities. Your key responsibility will be to maintain Third Sector’s position as the leading provider of charity news as the title undergoes a major digital transformation. The news editor is responsible for the news coverage of Third Sector online and playing a part in the general strategy and development of the brand. The news editor will report to the editor.
