Job: Associate Editor

Type: Full-time (40 hours)

Charlotte magazine, the award-winning city magazine for North Carolina’s largest metro, seeks an ambitious, curious associate editor for its monthly print magazine and related products. The ideal applicant is an adventurous writer and editor with an interest in varying lifestyle topics. He or she will represent the magazine at evening events; contribute to our growing social media platforms; and work within a small team and on rigid deadlines.

Other criteria:

* Bachelor’s degree required. Concentration in journalism, communications, or related field preferred.

* One year of professional experience with a digital or print publication required.

* An ability to assign, enforce, and write on deadline. This is a fun and rewarding job, but organization and professionalism are necessary.

* Knowledge of AP style required for proofing pages and assigned stories. Must be able to write clean, grammatically sound copy that conforms to AP style—and edit others according to that standard.

* Experience with social media platforms and digital publishing on platforms like WordPress encouraged but not required.

Applicants should send a cover letter, resume, and three references to editor Greg Lacour at greg.lacour@charlottemagazine.com, with 3-5 clips of varied lengths that demonstrate range in subject matter and storytelling approach.
