Senior Video Journalist, WSJ YouTube

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a senior video journalist to join its YouTube team to produce timely short-form video features, recurring franchises and in-depth explainers. Please note, this is not an entry-level position, and it is not a position producing documentaries. You should have an extensive professional background in video journalism, exceptional story development and scriptwriting skills, and have professional experience with shooting, editing and motion graphics for video. A deep familiarity with YouTube and social video, along with the ability to juggle and execute on multiple projects under varying deadlines are essential. Top candidates for this position will have a deep understanding of WSJ’s core coverage areas, the ability to juggle many tasks and should be excited about covering everything from daily news events to evergreen topics. The ability to react quickly and hit deadlines is essential to the job, as is the ability to bring challenging topics to life visually. The position will be based in our New York City offices and reports to the Executive Producer, YouTube.
