We’re conducting a national search for a Senior Editor at The California Sunday Magazine. Editors here are responsible for gathering and generating story ideas, finding new writers, editing stories, writing from time to time, and contributing to a variety of projects throughout the organization. We’re interested in vivid characters, engrossing plots, and surprising tales from across California, the West, Asia, and Latin America. You’ll work with prominent journalists as well as emerging talents. You should be full of ideas, and believe that this is an exciting time to be making media.

Just a year and a half old, California Sunday has been a finalist for three National Magazine Awards, and a winner in 2016. We also produce the acclaimed live event series Pop-Up Magazine, which presents new, mostly reported stories by writers, radio producers, photographers, and documentary filmmakers at 2,000- and 3,000-seat venues across the country—and there are opportunities for California Sunday editors to contribute.

The ideal candidate should have at least 5-10 years of experience editing exceptional reported features for a national audience. You should be a sophisticated story editor with a fast metabolism and a knack for generating ideas. You should be motivated to build a big, diverse network of writers.

This position is full-time, based in Los Angeles or San Francisco. In all our work, diversity is really important to us.

To apply, send your materials via the form on this page.

Salary will depend on experience. Senior Editors receive equity in California Sunday, publisher of The California Sunday Magazine and Pop-Up Magazine, and health insurance.
