The Hill, a division of Nexstar Media Group, is looking for an Associate Editor to join our newsroom.
This is an opportunity to break into the ground floor of a newsroom covering the 2024 elections for the White House and Congress.
The successful applicant will work closely with other reporters and editors to generate ideas and craft and refine non-partisan stories on politics, healthcare, national security and other coverage areas. We’re looking for someone who can write and edit headlines and copy that sizzles and does not intimidate.
The position is full-time with some nights and weekends. We are accepting applications from those in the Beltway and people who would work remotely. A hard work ethic, good time-management skills and the ability to stay cool during a fast-paced news cycle are other attributes that will bring a candidate to the top.
Please upload your materials combined into one single document with as much of the following as possible: your updated resume, a brief cover letter explaining your interest and fit for the position, and your portfolio/clips or links to a few samples of your work. Completing these steps will ensure that you receive the highest consideration.
Compensation ranges from $55,000-$65,000 + commensurate with experience and skill level.
Benefits include medical, dental, vision, Life Insurance, and 401K with company match.
