Job description

Bisnow is seeking a seasoned, razor-sharp copy editor to support our burgeoning commercial real estate news operations. We’re in the business of delivering intelligence at the intersection of international commercial real estate and politics, sports, entertainment, business, technology and beyond. Bisnow is seeking a thorough editor with a deep passion for the news who can help us continue to expand our ambitions. This is a remote position.

BISNOW OVERVIEW

Bisnow is the commercial real estate industry's leading, vertically integrated B2B media platform, covering North America, Canada, the UK and Ireland. We serve the CRE industry through award-winning news and publications, renowned events, wide-ranging marketing services, specialized recruitment solutions, and intelligent sales enablement tools.

Our platform enables our audience to do more business by engaging more than 1.5M subscribers and convening more than 100K commercial real estate professionals every year. We host hundreds of events, publish thousands of thought-provoking stories, drive qualified leads, and create opportunities that make deals happen. At Bisnow, we love to think globally, but connect and inform our audience hyper-locally.

THE BISNOW NEWSROOM

We take the news seriously, blending hard news scoops with analytical enterprise stories and award-winning accountability journalism. Our newsroom is small but ambitious and strives to find creative ways to cover the commercial real estate industry. We hold a hard line between our news team and BISNOW’s sales and events arms, freeing our reporters to write heavy-hitting stories without fear of sponsor influence. Our reporters dive deep on a local beat but also have the opportunity to write stories for a national audience and work on long-term special projects of national or international significance.

Responsibilities

  • Copy edit news articles of varying lengths from around the United States, ensuring stories are grammatically and factually correct and are in Bisnow style.
  • Be the last line of defense not only on article cleanliness but also newsworthiness and objectivity.
  • As part of a team of editors, help guide the editorial strategy of Bisnow’s newsroom.

Qualifications

  • Minimum five years of experience working on an editorial team with a specific emphasis on copy editing.
  • Ideally, experience in business-to-business reporting; experience in commercial real estate reporting a major plus.
  • A deep knowledge of AP style and grammar.
  • A fast learner who can grasp Bisnow procedure and unique style quickly.
  • Flexibility and adaptability to pivot and reprioritize as news comes in.
  • Clear, friendly and firm communication style.
  • Excellent news judgment.
  • Extensive experience working in content management systems.
  • Basic SEO knowledge.
  • Benefits

  • Competitive compensation structure!
  • Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance - effective the 1st of the month following your start date.
  • Short and Long Term Disability Insurance - this includes maternity and paternity leaves as well.
  • 401K
  • Flexible Spending Account
  • Health Savings Account
  • Dependent Care Account
  • Unlimited Vacation Days
  • 7 days paid sick leave
  • 9 paid Holidays
  • Referral Bonus Program
  • Pet Friendly Offices
  • You’ll get to work with incredibly smart, passionate, driven, ambitious, kind, caring and mindful people and will rarely experience an overload of policies, bureaucracy or toxicity (the latter, we do not tolerate).
  • $60,000 - $65,000 a year

    Application deadline : 11 / 1 / 2025

    Before applying, please read our values below. Our values describe and give insight into our culture. If you do not share the same values, this role will not be a mutually beneficial fit. If you do share these values and want to apply, we encourage you to do so.

    Our values demand that we be curious, self-aware, fearless, consistent. We say yes to seemingly insurmountable challenges because we dare ourselves to push further. And we go the distance because we are individually and collectively entrepreneurial, always asking : Why can’t it be done? We find a way because we care more than the competition. We embrace team and disown ego. We are ruthlessly disciplined and unabashedly kind. We unreservedly challenge the status quo and vigorously fight for new levels of excellence. We believe the difference between good and great is exceptional communication. We obsess over creating value for our team and our customers. We push ourselves and our industry to be more inclusive, to champion diversity and to fight racism, gender bias and all forms of inequality. We never peak. We never quit. We never have excuses. We own our failures and we commit to being smarter and stronger because of them. We give our best today and even better tomorrow. We are here to win.
