The Sun is investing in journalism that stands out, seeking those who create content that is essential, insightful and impossible to replicate. This is an opportunity to lead a sports report that goes deeper and delivers more value to readers than anyone else.

Lead accountability reporting in sports, examining money, power, public funding and decision-making involving teams, leagues and institutions.
Own SEO and audience strategy, including headline writing, search optimization and digital packaging to maximize reach and impact.
Build must-read local coverage across pro, college and high school sports, with a focus on stories that resonate with readers.
Develop and lead a high-performing team, coaching reporters and assistant editors to produce deeper reporting, stronger sourcing and more authoritative storytelling.
Collaborate across the newsroom to elevate major stories and ensure strong execution across digital, print and eNewspaper platforms.

Education and Experience Requirements

5+ years of editing experience, including leadership in sports or a related area
Proven ability to produce enterprise, analytical and accountability journalism
Strong understanding of SEO, digital growth and real-time coverage
Excellent news judgment, leadership and communication skills
Knowledge of Baltimore sports and the regional landscape is a plus

Salary Range: $80,000 - $90,000

Individual compensation may vary from the target range based on several factors, including experience, internal pay equity, and other relevant business considerations.

Application Submission

With you submission, please include a cover letter highlighting your editorial leadership experience, approach to leading sports coverage, and vision for producing impactful, audience-driven journalism. Applicants should also submit relevant editing clips or examples of work that demonstrate news judgment, storytelling, and digital presentation. Application materials can be submitted to [email protected].
