Job Description:

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a coordinating producer to oversee news coverage as part of its global video team. Excellent editorial, production and team-management skills are key for this position. While you will help manage a small domestic team, this is a hands-on role. We are seeking a strong editorial leader with a track record of producing timely business and markets news, political and industry analysis, and feature coverage that stands out in the 24/7 information cycle.

  • Manage a small team of video journalists to produce news, analysis and topical videos of interest to The Wall Street Journal audience
  • Work closely with video journalists to hone story angles, strengthen scripts and ensure videos maintain highest production value
  • Propose new and original story ideas for timely news coverage on a daily basis
  • Collaborate with key newsroom editors, overseas video leaders and producers to develop best-in-class video journalism
  • Coach beat reporters and news editors to appear on camera or in voiceover
  • Research, write and produce coverage as necessary
  • Provide clear and productive notes on scripts and videos in edit
  • Mentor staff and provide opportunities for feedback and growth
  • Ensure that all journalistic and legal standards are followed
  • Be able to work late hours and weekends as news developments and time zone considerations may warrant

You have:
  • At least eight years' experience working in a daily, video news environment
  • Experience producing compelling business, tech and political coverage under tight deadline constraints
  • A track record of translating complex business and economics stories into reporting that informs WSJ's core subscriber base and appeals to broader audiences
