Full Job Description

The Biscayne Times is seeking a newsroom-minded Assignment & Production Editor (Contractor) to help run the monthly editorial pipeline and guide each issue across the finish line.

***Qualified Candidates Must Live In South Florida***

About The Biscayne Times

The Biscayne Times is a trusted community newspaper serving Miami’s neighborhoods with local journalism that matters. We cover the people, places, culture, and decisions shaping our communities—along with accountability reporting that keeps local institutions honest. Our readers rely on us for hyperlocal news, civic affairs, development, business profiles, arts and culture, and enterprise stories across areas including Edgewater, Wynwood, the Upper East Side, and beyond.

Assign and track stories from pitch to publish, keeping writers aligned on scope and deadlines
Lead collaborative story-planning conversations with staff and freelancers to generate strong hyperlocal ideas

Editing + quality control

Review and line-edit all content prior to copy editing (clarity, structure, voice, accuracy, and flow)
Ensure stories meet editorial standards for fairness, sourcing, and local relevance
From time to time, contribute high-value stories, features, or opinion pieces as needed

Team coordination + production close

Oversee our staff writer and coordinate a small team of contributors and freelance writers
Recruit and onboard new freelance writers periodically to meet evolving editorial needs
Work closely with the graphic design team to support final page production and a clean handoff to print
Keep the issue on track and help ensure we consistently meet monthly print deadlines

Community relationships

Build and maintain working relationships with elected officials, business leaders, and community stakeholders to support reporting and advance the publication’s editorial mission

Required Skills

3+ years experience editing in a newsroom or news publishing environment (community/local strongly preferred)
Strong news judgment and comfort shaping angles, tightening structure, and elevating clarity fast
Excellent line-editing skills and attention to detail
Solid command of AP Style (and ability to enforce consistent house style)
Proven ability to manage writers and freelancers with clear feedback and steady follow-through
Comfortable working with print workflows and collaborating with designers toward page close
Organized, deadline-driven, and calm under pressure—especially during the final week of production

Nice to Have

Familiarity with Miami neighborhoods, civic issues, and local government
Spanish proficiency
Experience with CMS tools and basic editorial workflow systems

Contract Details

Contractor role (1099)
Rate: $35-$40/hour based on experience and qualifications
Time commitment: Not to exceed 65 hours per month
Workload is typically lighter early in the month and ramps up approaching the end-of-the-month print deadline
