Senior Editor, Motor1 (NYC, Los Angeles, Detroit)

Motorsport is seeking a Senior Editor to help shape and accelerate our editorial presence across all platforms. This role offers the energy of a start-up environment inside a fast-growing global network. You’ll work closely with the Editor-in-Chief to steer daily coverage, develop breakthrough storytelling, and expand our voice beyond the track—from trusted racing news to culture, lifestyle, and trend-driven features that engage fans everywhere.

About Motorsport : Motor1 is the ultimate destination for the hardcore car enthusiast and a valuable resource for the savvy car buyer. Motor1 has aimed to provide automotive news and reviews to every level of car fan. Today, we’re expanding that mission to provide engaging feature stories, reporting, reviews, videos, podcasts, and more that put cars at the center of the conversation.

With daily news coverage, car reviews, social media posts, videos, podcasts and more, Motor1 today seeks to be your comprehensive automotive guide. And with millions of monthly readers and followers across our many platforms, we are one of the fastest-growing brands in the automotive space.

What We’re Looking For : You have a sharp editorial eye and know how to move quickly from idea to execution without sacrificing quality. You’re excited to experiment, test new formats, and collaborate across teams to build something bold and new. You inspire writers, spot fresh voices, and understand how to create stories that work across site, social, and beyond.

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive the day-to-day editorial operations, ensuring speed, accuracy, and creativity.
  • Build and maintain an editorial calendar that captures key racing moments and trend opportunities.
  • Edit and shape a range of content—from breaking news to longform features and multimedia packages.
  • Cultivate and mentor staff writers and freelancers, elevating ideas into standout coverage.
  • Commission and manage freelance contributors and budgets.
  • Partner with social, video, and design teams to develop ambitious, cross-platform storytelling.
  • Support branded and sponsor-driven initiatives while upholding editorial standards.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of digital media experience, with strong editing and content leadership skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a fast-paced, start-up or early-stage environment.
  • Track record of editing or writing motorsport, sports, or culture-related stories.
  • Expertise in SEO best practices and crafting attention-grabbing headlines.
  • Excellent organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines.
  • The hiring range for this position is $85,000 - $110,000 per year. This position can be located in New York City (Hybrid), Los Angeles (Remote) or Michigan (Remote). The base pay actually offered will take into account internal equity and also may vary depending on the candidate's geographic region, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience among other factors.

    Motorsport is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates.
