About The Position

TIME is seeking a web producer to help bring TIME’s high-impact lists and franchises to life online—publishing fast, accurately, and with strong SEO—while supporting an ambitious expansion across the Franchises + Accolades portfolio. You’ll sit on the Web Production team and collaborate closely with editors to meet demanding timelines and uphold TIME’s editorial standards.

Requirements

• Professional experience in web production within a newsroom or digital publishing environment, with strong attention to detail and consistency.

• Solid SEO fundamentals (metadata, internal linking, headline/dek best practices) and excellent editorial judgment.
• Familiarity with affiliate workflows.

Responsibilities

• Produce TIME lists and franchise packages for web, optimizing them for readability, experience, and revenue.
• Build collection items end-to-end in the CMS: input text and photos, complete back-end fields, and apply SEO best practices for consistency and quality across large list packages.
• Implement and QA affiliate links for assigned projects (e.g., Best Inventions), coordinating with editors to ensure accurate, trackable links are live and maintained.
• Maintain rigorous pre- and post-publish QA (formatting, image crops, alt text/accessibility, metadata, canonicals/redirects) and ensure clean cross-linking across hubs and category pages.
• Communicate proactively, track tasks clearly, and surface obstacles early; partner across edit, photo, design, and marketing to keep launches on schedule.
• Support broader web production needs as capacity allows, including CMS migration tasks, search optimization, and curation of the homepage and recirculation units.
• Promote and abide by our commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Benefits

• Medical, vision, dental insurance
• Over 4 weeks of paid time off, in addition to paid company holidays (plus a culture that supports and encourages time to actually be taken!)
