The ability to communicate effectively and professionally across departments, resolving workflow conflicts gracefully and working collegially with co-workers and the public
A steady, focused approach in intense, fast-breaking news situations while handling varied tasks within tight time frames
Familiarity with digital analytics tools and a strong desire to use data to inform daily editorial and presentation decisions
