We need your help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the retirement of Tannette Elie, we are looking for a managing editor who can take us to new heights in journalism and community engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Help us spread the word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a key role in our 14-year-old newsroom, and we are looking for someone who is both a champion of excellent journalism as well as a champion of the people who produce the excellent work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We seek someone with top-notch leadership skills and impeccable news judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applicants must be committed to collaboration, appreciate diversity and inclusion and have a passion for coaching a talented newsroom while juggling multiple projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need to know about this job<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This position reports directly to the executive director, and the successful applicant must be comfortable working with residents, students, emerging journalists and seasoned veterans to create stories that resonate with readers who often are neglected, underrepresented or misrepresented by other media outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our staffers don\u2019t parachute into our communities and then leave: We are embedded in our neighborhoods, and we remain invested in the lives of our readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we inform, we believe we believe we can also transform<\/em> through the power of fact-based multimedia reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are looking for the person who can bring out the best in our staff and who can help us become required reading for all those interested in Milwaukee’s Black and brown communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this role, you will:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
