The Washington Post is looking for homepage editors. These are full-time positions, and we will move quickly to fill them, by hiring directly onto the second shift (4 p.m.-midnight), the overnight shift (11 p.m.-7 a.m.) or the day team. We are looking for experienced journalists with excellent news judgment. Proven Web production and communication skills and the ability to write headlines — both the muscular news headlines that have long been valued in this business, and the conversational headlines that more recently have proven to be digitally potent — are vital. The jobs require people who are comfortable with technology, effective communicators and good problem solvers. Experience as a social producer is a plus.
The overnight position, in particular, calls for an experienced editor who can be the primary editor for copy coming in from overseas. The ideal candidate for that job would also have experience editing foreign news copy.
