This role is based in Canberra, Australia. \"Playbooks\" are POLITICO's signature products. We're seeking a hands‐on editor responsible for overseeing Canberra Playbook workflows.
As the traffic controller of a small, high‐intensity team, your goal is to ensure multiple Playbook products worth opening are delivered on‐time and to POLITICO's high standards.
You will be part of a global network of more than 100 editors and your efforts will help define POLITICO's presence in Australia, ensuring that we become required reading across Parliament House, embassies, and boardrooms.
Who You Are
* Someone who can improve copy quickly and decisively
* Someone with news judgement who understands how that news fits into a product framework
* Comfortable operating in a startup‐style environment with limited resources
* Able to push reporters to be better without slowing them down
* Deep interest in politics and policy
* Experience with newsletters, live formats, and/or audio is a plus
What You'll Do
* Provide the final edit for Canberra Playbook (AM + PM)
* Shape the editorial voice, structure and daily priorities
* Coordinate a small team of reporters and writers to prevent blind spots and duplication
* Work closely with global POLITICO teams to integrate international coverage, and ensure coherence with other Playbooks
