The Express Desk, a general assignment and breaking news hub at The New York Times, has an opening for a senior staff editor on its New York-based team. If you're looking for an experience on the front lines of breaking news, one that blends editing, reporting and writing skills, this opportunity is for you. You will join a close-knit team in spotting and tracking breaking news and other worthy stories for The Times to cover. We cooperate closely with all the news desks, particularly on major news events that cross Newsroom boundaries. The ideal candidate has wide interest in every sort of news topic and the ability to quickly build subject expertise.
