This role is based in our New York City headquarters.

  • Collaborate and build trusting relationships with leaders across partner teams (e.g., Product, Growth, Data, and Finance) to implement relevant recommendations.
  • Support partner teams on regular strategic planning, driver-based forecasting and performance management processes.
  • Demonstrate support and understanding of our value of journalistic independence and a strong commitment to our mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world.

  • Experience working with partners in Product, Engineering, Data, and Marketing
  • Experience breaking down complex problems into pieces that can be solved with data, analysis, and clear assumptions
