Multiplatform Editor, News Desk (Temporary)

The Los Angeles Times is looking for a temporary, full-time journalist to join the News Desk as a multiplatform editor. This editor will be a key part of the News Desk, the team that serves as the central nervous system for our newsroom. The News Desk coordinates coverage and makes certain that content is planned, published, promoted, packaged and then pushed via alerts and emails to reach the largest number of readers, at the right time of day. The News Desk works closely with every department: the core news desks; the copy desk; audience engagement; photo and video; and with our colleagues in technology, product and engineering.
