Gimlet Media tells stories through audio. Our roster of podcasts includes critically– acclaimed shows like Stolen, StartUp, Crimetown, Homecoming, and The Nod. We have top editorial, sales, and business teams that work together to create experiences that help listeners better understand each other and the world around them. We are looking for ambitious, curious, talented, and kind people to join our team.
We come from diverse backgrounds, brought together by the desire to create amazing experiences for listeners, and a shared belief in working hard, embracing creativity, and supporting one another. At Gimlet, good ideas matter more than titles. People who tackle problems with creative solutions, and who love the energy of a collaborative, team– oriented creative process thrive here. We’re proud to have joined the Spotify family with whom we share these values.
The Show
The Journal is a daily narrative news podcast made in partnership between Gimlet and the Wall Street Journal. Each day, we tell one important news story in 15– 20 minutes. Our show focuses on money and business, applying those lenses to general news or zooming in on business stories that other outlets do not tell. We have covered everything from the Russian invasion into Ukraine, the racial reckoning in corporations after George Floyd’s murder and we’ve published an explosive investigation into Facebook alongside the Wall Street Journal’s print paper.
The Role
An editor at Gimlet is the person who helps each story find its shape, who guides a production team from the initial idea to the final, polished audio piece. The successful candidate will be an experienced storyteller capable of leading teams to craft stories that are engaging, surprising, and emotionally satisfying. They think deeply about narrative structure. They believe in the power of audio to open people up or change their minds, and they know that kind of project takes tremendous effort and constant revision. They are critical of the work but encouraging and supportive of their teams. They don’t just point out the problems, they stick around to coach the team in fixing them.
We’re looking for an editor who is passionate about news, appreciates the work that The Journal does every day and has an ambitious vision for what this show can accomplish. This person should have a background in journalism, be experienced in narrative storytelling, enthusiastic about working on tight deadlines, and excited about providing consistent and holistic feedback. We’re also looking for someone confident and skilled at project managing and editing short– run narrative series.
This is a leadership position, and we’re looking for someone who finds enormous satisfaction in developing and supporting exceptional colleagues. While this role is set for normal work hours, it also requires flexibility and openness to weekend and after– hours work.
This is a full– time role based anywhere in North America, working East coast hours. The application deadline is Monday, August 1st at 5p ET.
