The Philadelphia Inquirer is looking for an Alerts Editor to join its Programming & Audience team. This team manages the digital distribution tactics for The Inquirer’s journalism and works to optimize our coverage for the widest possible reach and engagement. The Alerts Editor will lead our strategy, planning and execution for notifications across mobile, email, desktop and other emerging... technology.
What You’ll Do
• Hundreds of thousands of individual readers, both paying subscribers and non-subscribers, receive email and/or push alerts from The Inquirer. We need somebody to take the lead on serving and growing that audience.
• You’ll be the primary editorial stakeholder for The Inquirer’s alerts strategy. What alerts do we offer? How are they best delivered? What type of coverage should we be alerting to more, or less?
• Evaluate the Inquirer journalism that is best suited for notifications each day and develop short- and long-term distribution plans for alerts across our mobile app and email lists.
• Track the engagement performance of alerts and compile reports and feedback for key stakeholders working on The Inquirer’s digital strategy. Use this data to inform and evolve our approach to notifications.
• This position will work closely with our Senior Newsletter Strategist on the execution and evolution of our email distribution strategy. Collaboration will be required to navigate the lines between newsletters and email notifications and this position will play a key role in complementing our newsletter portfolio.
• Assist with writing and editing alert copy, both in advance and in breaking news situations, and provide feedback to Digital Producers on best practices and formats. Help coach others on best practices for writing alerts and identifying stories best suited for these formats.
• Collaborate with editors from across the newsroom to solicit and identify upcoming stories that can be used for notifications and then create and finalize the language and timing for those alerts.
• SMS texting, messaging apps, desktop notifications and other forms of mobile alerts could become a larger part of this role in time.
What We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate will have 5-plus years of experience working in digital media. Prior experience working specifically with newsletters, email and mobile notifications is big plus, but not necessarily a requirement. Experience working in social media, curation and other audience development roles is also applicable to this position.
Qualifications
• Strong news judgment and organizational skills are both crucial for this role, as is the ability to quickly distill the most important elements of stories and write and edit concise, accurate and clean copy around them.
• Someone who is comfortable calling the shots. This position will need to take ownership of our alerts portfolio and make decisions on how and when to optimize our journalism for alerts, working with and guiding colleagues in executing those plans.
• The ability to work quickly and under pressure in breaking news situations is required.
• A curiosity for how people consume information as technology and trends continue to evolve. Contribute to building systems and initiatives that encourage people to form a habit of engaging with our journalism.
• A passion for news and familiarity with news industry editorial standards and best practices.
This position is based in the Greater Philadelphia area and will work within The Inquirer’s hybrid work model. There will be flexibility to work many shifts from home. Most shifts will be weekday hours, although the ability to work some weekends and evenings, with notice, around important news cycles is required Show more details...

Job Purpose/Summary
We're seeking an Editor to help manage, update and improve our evergreen service content. You should know how to spot trends and solve readers' problems, enjoy experimentation and be able to build on lessons learned, and embrace the idea that journalism should be more accessible, engaging and useful.
The Service Updates Editor will work with our Service Editor and Senior Service Editor to manage our evergreen service project. Our evergreen service mandate is to create lasting resources that deepen our readers' connection to Philly, solve their problems, and make their lives better. That can mean helping people find great stuff to do, know what to do if they get called for jury duty, find affordable childcare, or make Irish Potatoes.
This role will be focused on identifying guides and topics that we should update and improve. That means making changes to live content both proactively and reactively. We will always be trying to find ways to make content better than it was, both because it's more useful to the reader, and more inclusive and representative of our diverse city.
You will be directly involved in our content planning process, collaborating to map out content priorities, as well as building and managing a stable of freelance writers and researchers.
Because our work spans a wide range of subject matter, you are comfortable working with information you're not expert in and making it make sense to readers. You know both with our direct competitors in the market, and how great evergreen service content works. You're adept at writing clean, clear, and simple prose that breaks down sometimes complex information well, and finding ways to produce those stories to make them easy for readers to use and understand. And you are comfortable working with product teams to help improve how our stories appear on our site.
You're an editor who relishes writer development, is comfortable playing with voice, and wants to push the boundaries on story concepts and forms. You're meticulous and creative, helping us ambitiously push how our newsroom can be more useful to our region.
Core duties
• Update stories to make them more accurate, accessible, inclusive, and useful
• Help manage and maintain service inventory and updates calendar for everything we publish
• Pitch, write, and edit stories that are sometimes outside of your areas of expertise, as necessary
• Write reported stories and analysis as needed, and curate content from other outlets and social media
• Line-edit and produce stories
• Work with service editor, digital producers and product teams to improve our story forms and presentation
• Work with photo and video teams to make our content more media-rich and engaging
• Work with freelance writers and fact checkers
• Help build stable of freelance experts
• Collaborate with other reporters, editors, and desks in the newsroom
• Work in our content management system to edit stories, following style and formatting best practices
• Stay up to date on best in show examples from other service content sites
Qualifications
• A minimum of two years journalism experience, including a strong service journalism background
• A bachelor's degree, or equivalent professional experience
• Strong writing and editing skills
• Adept at using social media for discovery, research and distribution
• Ability to use digital metrics to set goals, evaluate progress and inform adjustments
• Exceptional collaboration and communication skills
• Track record of effectively managing complex projects and/or stories
• A solid grounding in SEO/Google ranking guidelines and best practices
• Skills in brainstorming, planning, and coordinating multimedia storytelling
• Creativity in problem-solving
