Full Job Description

ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
The Chicago Council on Global Affairs is where your world and the world meet. The Council is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that empowers more people to help shape our global future. Through content and engagement experiences that offer diverse, fact-based perspectives and in-depth analysis, we foster dialogue on the world’s most critical issues. We are committed to building an inclusive community of globally conscious people who want to actively participate in global affairs and gain the knowledge that can help them make a tangible impact – big or small – in the world.

THE ROLE
The Senior Editor/Writer is a specialized role at the Council, dedicated to curating and shaping the Council’s expert commentary and thought leadership. This person should have expertise and experience working in the field of international affairs. This person will work closely with the President & CEO and the Council’s Research Committee to conceive and develop and edit writing across multiple outlets.

This requires someone who thinks seriously and independently about global affairs, who reads widely, follows the policy and expert debates, and can work with our CEO and senior fellows to identify, curate, and edit key contributions to US foreign policy, geopolitics, and geoeconomics, and who can translate that knowledge into writing that is rigorous, relevant, and accessible. The right candidate brings subject matter depth to the partnership, ensuring that the Council’s expertise is positioned for maximum impact in today’s most important debates.

The role reports to the President & CEO and collaborates regularly with the Council’s research, editorial, and programs teams to draw on the full depth of the institution’s expertise.

The Chicago Council operates on a hybrid working environment. Please note that this role may require work outside of normal hours, including on weekends.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Writing & Content Development

Serve as the Senior Editor for the Council.
Oversee a small editorial team to ensure rigor and relevance in the Council’s expert commentary.
Work proactively with the communications team to ensure the Council’s written work is innovative, excellent, and communicated effectively.
Work closely with the President & CEO, and the Council's Research Committee, to conceive and curate relevant and rigorous content.
Support the CEO and other members of senior leadership as needed for high-stakes external documents.

QUALIFICATIONS

Required

Master’s degree in international relations, political science, journalism, history, or a related field.
A minimum of 5 years of professional writing experience, howeer the best candidates are most likely to have many more years of experience with a demonstrated portfolio of published or produced work on foreign policy, global affairs, or related subjects.
Genuine subject matter knowledge in international affairs.
Exceptional writing ability across registers: analytical and academic, accessible and public-facing, spoken and scripted.
Willingness to be available for rapid-response moments on fast-moving news events, and ability to produce high-quality content on tight deadlines without sacrificing accuracy or rigor.

Preferred

Demonstrated experience as a senior writing collaborator to an executive, senior official, or public intellectual; someone adept at serving a leader’s voice, ideas, and public presence rather than their own.
Experience in or close familiarity with think tanks, foreign policy institutions, international NGOs, government, or academia.
Familiarity with the Chicago Council Survey and the broader landscape of US public opinion research on foreign policy.
Experience writing for or advising leaders in international affairs, diplomacy, or senior government roles.
Demonstrated ability to develop and execute a thought leadership content strategy, including identifying issues, sequencing content, and building a coherent public narrative over time.
Comfort with podcast scripts, video content, and formats beyond traditional print is a plus; willingness to work across an evolving media landscape is expected.
Willingness to be based in Chicago. This is not designed to be a remote position unless there are exceptional circumstances.

APPLICATION PROCESS

We strongly encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible. The search will remain open until the position is filled.

Salary Range: $150,000 - $180,000
The pay range included represents a good faith estimate of the possible full-time compensation offer for this role at the time of posting.

We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, ancestry, religion, age, handicap or disability, marital status, military service or veteran status, genetic information, or for any other reason prohibited by applicable law.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We are committed to weaving diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the fabric of the Council, and we believe people — their identities, experiences, beliefs, knowledge, and ideas — are critical to our success and to global affairs. We will elevate diverse voices and identities and a full range of perspectives, advance equitable and inclusive access to exploring and shaping ideas, and ensure our organization reflects the diversity of Chicago, our nation, and the world.
