This high-autonomy role is ideal for a sharp, energetic editor with a witty, expressive voice and a strong understanding of newsletters as key audience and revenue drivers. The ideal candidate can craft must-read products, set editorial tone, and elevate performance metrics while collaborating across fast-paced newsrooms.
Responsibilities:
- Curate and write two high-impact daily newsletters (M–F) in the distinct New York Post voice, including crafting introductions, summarizing key stories, and delivering sharp quick-hit items.
- Oversee newsletter performance metrics—open rates, CTRs, retention—and partner with editorial and audience teams to develop strategies that deepen engagement.
- Solicit contributions and pitches from reporters and editors across the New York Post and California Post to enrich content.
- Manage newsletter production within the CMS and email service provider (Sailthru preferred), ensuring list health, deliverability, and efficient workflow.
- Provide editorial and production support for additional newsletters as needed.
Requirements:
- 5+ years of digital editorial experience, including at least 3 years focused on high-volume newsletter production and strategy.
- Exceptional news judgment with the ability to make fast, high-stakes editorial decisions.
- A witty, expressive, and adaptable writing style aligned with the New York Post’s bold, irreverent tone.
- Ability to work independently and provide editorial direction without direct supervisory authority.
- Collaborative, entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to rally cross-departmental support.
- Hands-on experience with major ESPs (Sailthru preferred), including familiarity with deliverability, metrics, and campaign execution.
- Flexibility to work non-traditional hours based on newsletter deadlines and send-times.
Note: This role will be expected to report on-site 5 days per week.
