Job Description

The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It’s why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It’s why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it’s why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it’s worth paying for.

Mission Overview & Responsibilities:

Times journalism is in amazing form, and audiences trust our authoritative coverage. Our business-side colleagues help serve our reporting and products to more than nine million subscribers across multiple platforms.

To continue supporting our strategy of creating journalism that stands apart, along with innovative products and services to bring the news to the world, we must recruit the finest journalists and hire many of the field's most creative and distinguished people. That starts from within.

Employing more people at all levels of the organization who bring different perspectives will make our journalism more insightful, relevant and urgent.

We are committed to nurturing talent and investing in our own employees before recruiting from the outside. So if you see a job opening here that might be a right fit for you, we encourage you to apply.
