This is an amazing opportunity to take the wheel of a trusted local news brand and lead the newsroom’s engagement with our community. The Engagement Editor position calls for lots of experimentation and collaboration with our reporters and editors, as this is the ethos of our newsroom’s digital team in general. You’ll join a group that prizes creativity and pushes itself to experiment and innovate. The job also includes executing our current engagement strategies and developing new ones as the social media landscape evolves. A great candidate will be familiar with metrics tools and comfortable making quick, independent decisions based on both quantitative and qualitative factors. We know numbers help us understand our successes and failures, but they aren’t the whole story when it comes to engagement. Building our audience in communities — particularly communities of color — that St. Louis Public Radio hasn't served well historically.
