In this role, you'll work across teams and need to seamlessly handle requests both large and small from reporters and editors. The ability to work on-call nights and weekends as part of a rotation. Excellent time management skills and experience meeting deadlines. Experience prioritizing and handling multiple projects at various stages of production.
