  • Craft unique illustrations for key Opinion pieces using AI digital image manipulation software
  • Research and experiment with emerging platforms and styles of content
  • Assist the digital editor in developing and fine tuning Globe Opinion’s digital strategy

Qualifications :

  • Bachelor’s degree in journalism or a related field
  • 2-4 years of relevant work experience in content creation and social media management
  • A track record of successful, audience-focused journalism
  • Deep knowledge of social platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X, and how each can be leveraged to drive traffic and engage users
  • Experience with analytics and scheduling tools like SocialFlow, Chartbeat, Adobe Omniture, and MailChimp
  • Ability to produce and edit engaging photo, video, and audio content
  • A willingness to adapt and be audience focused, with a curious mindset and a commitment to creating an inclusive work environment

The BGMP office is located in downtown Boston, near Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market, and is easily accessible by MBTA and commuter rail lines.

This position is based in Boston, and candidates should be based in the area or willing to move.

This position is a union position covered by a collective bargaining agreement with the Boston Newspaper Guild.
