Location: US - New York - New York City

Position Type: Full Time

About the Role:

The Huffington Post is looking for nimble Mobile Editors to help curate the creation, packaging and distribution of HuffPost content to ensure the strongest possible mobile news experience. We are looking for leaders and creative thinkers who will experiment relentlessly, and evangelize within the newsroom.

Requirements for Success:

  • Have rock-solid news judgement. Know when a story matters, when it doesn't — and why. Understand and honor the value of clarity, accuracy and speed.

  • Guide reporters and editors as they calibrate stories for maximum impact on our app, mobile web, Facebook, Twitter and other social platforms.
  • Recognize what makes a mobile headline shareable and clickable. Help make sure our images, graphics and interactives create a mobile-friendly user experience.
  • Weigh in on both daily and long-term project packaging for mobile optimization.
  • Use analytics tools to spot trends. Create best practices and turn them into pointers for the rest of the newsroom.
  • Be an advocate and evangelist. Inspire enthusiasm. Be able to execute and teach.
  • Obsess over emerging platforms and mobile innovations. Investigate new ways to interact with news on an insatiable level. Refine and help develop our site-wide mobile strategy.
  • Feel comfortable working with our designers, developers and product experts to conceptualize, troubleshoot and test new mobile experiences. Speak their language — and know how to translate that back to the editorial team.
  • Collaborate with newsroom stakeholders. Teamwork is core to who we are at HuffPost.
  • Think big, think creative, think outside the box. Understand and embrace why a mobile-first strategy is critical and endlessly exciting.
