Associate Editor

Founded in 1865 by abolitionists, The Nation today is a thriving progressive media outlet that publishes both a bi-weekly print magazine and a daily website covering politics, culture, and the arts. We are seeking a full-time associate editor, and strongly encourage candidates who identify as people of color, people with disabilities, LGBTQ+, and/or gender nonconforming to apply. Although we are currently working remotely, and you should have the capability to do that, a successful candidate should also be prepared to work in our New York office when the pandemic ends. We’re looking for an energetic, rigorous editor who knows The Nation well and has a track record of working with a variety of authors to produce short, sharp comment pieces for print and web and an interest in editing long-form pieces. We are particularly interested in candidates who are passionate and knowledgeable about US electoral politics, social and political movements, or Black history, culture, and politics.
