News Editor w/ Visual Smarts!

Editor Needed! Our client - a HUGE web portal - is looking for a News Editor to lead curation efforts to compile and curate visual news digests which serve as a definitive and holistic roundup of the day's news in a very visual and summarized form. Elements in this morning news digest may include maps, quotes, infographics, images, video, etc. Please note: Your portfolio should show a nice mix of News stories and "soft" stories (entertainment, food, health, sports, cars, etc). Please include your portfolio link on your resume. Requirements: Strong editorial ability to combine and prioritize top breaking news with lighter, buzzier content around entertainment, sports, arts, and other related news for an intelligent consumer looking for depth and alacrity. Uncanny knack for display copy, image selection, caption composition and savviness with relevant multimedia value-added storytelling components (e.g. stock price, maps, context, etc.) Other tasks may include general editorial duties as time permits and as needed, such as photo and story editing. Must be willing to work early hours and weekends. Looking for someone flexible and open to these hours.
