Social Strategy Editor

The New York Times is looking for a Social Editor with experience in journalism, social media strategy and co-producing projects that involve crowdsourcing, social media reporting and research and user-generated content (UGC). You will establish a vision for shaping and targeting our journalism for different platforms, and you will be responsible for understanding and developing new strategies, tools and workflows as those platforms evolve. This means you’ll be building our presence on Facebook, Twitter, chat apps and emerging platforms. Engaging our readers, monitoring on-site and off-platform conversations for story ideas and integrating readers’ contributions into our daily and enterprise report is essential. You will also work with reporters and editors across the newsroom in how social media and readers’ voices can inform our journalism, both pre and post publishing.
