Full job description

Who we are

Semafor is a global news platform for an increasingly complex world in which consumers are overwhelmed by too many news sources and unsure what to trust. We are building Semafor to enable world-class journalists to deliver reporting and insights with rigor in journalistic forms that ensure a new level of transparency. Our editors and reporters distill the most important stories from all over in formats that uncover the forces shaping the stories, explain the interests behind polarizing narratives, and replenish the stock of shared facts. As a global platform, Semafor recognizes that smart people can disagree and that informed readers need to understand alternative points of view from competing centers of power and culture in a multi-polar world. Want to join us? Read on.

About the Role

Private credit, AI, politics, and other global forces are upending the world of business and finance, reordering how money moves around the globe. We’re looking for a tireless and talented senior editor to work alongside our marquee reporters as they break big stories on the bleeding edge of Wall Street — private investing, hedge funds, deals, activism, banking, prediction markets and private equity.

We’re looking for someone with outstanding news judgment, a global perspective, and a deep commitment to the reader, to help lead this key pillar of Semafor, edit some of our most important stories, and grow our global audience of leaders and decision-makers. You’ll also help write, produce and provide insight for our daily briefings, collaborating with journalists across Semafor’s newsroom.

Ideal candidates bring a strong track record of coaching reporters, elevating coverage, and enlivening prose, as well as experience in the pace and platforms of online breaking news.

This senior editor position will be based in Semafor's London office location. Candidates will be asked to complete a writing and editing exercise as part of the interview process, and must retain the right to work where they live.

Your responsibilities

Edit some of our highest-profile scoops, analysis and stories
Take a leadership role in the editing and production of the Semafor business and finance briefings
Plan and coordinate coverage with colleagues and freelancers who operate across multiple time zones
Collaborate closely and constantly with Semafor’s editing team, and other verticals across Semafor’s global newsroom
Think constantly about story distribution and audiences, whether on social media or key partners and platforms

What makes you qualified

5+ years of relevant journalism experience, including newsroom management, leadership, or editing experience
Experience in editing business and finance stories, with an ability to convey authority, insight, and nuance
A fluidity in writing and a comfort with editing writers with unique voice
A strategic, sophisticated approach to identifying the strongest angle across different issues, storylines, and geographies
Eagerness to be part of a dynamic work environment demanding initiative, flexibility, and a willingness to jump in wherever needed to help the team succeed

Compensation: The base salary range for this role is $110,000 - $140,000 annually based on individual candidate experience.

Additional job details

Semafor offers a Flexible Paid Time Off (PTO) policy to our full-time, salaried employees who may take paid time off as-needed without a prescribed limit or defined balance.

Semafor, Inc. is an equal opportunity employer and enthusiastically encourages people from all backgrounds and experiences to apply. Semafor, Inc. will consider all applicants without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, physical and/or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, transgender status, age, sexual orientation, military or veteran status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law.
