Bidoun is looking for a part-time editor to work with our core team. The editor will commission, develop, and edit pieces, which may include criticism, reportage, memoir, or interviews. Bidoun works on an average of 1-2 books per year and said editor may be asked to weigh in on these, too. Candidates should have several years of magazine, book publishing and/or newspaper experience. Meticulous research, copy editing, and proofreading skills are required, as is a sense of humor. Bidoun is a small, collectively-run organization; the ideal candidate will be familiar with and invested in the project’s sensibility and mission. Salary will begin at 36K & can grow depending on time and experience. Applicants can be based anywhere, as most meetings happen via Zoom, though Bidoun’s core team is located in NYC.
Please send cover letter, CV, and the names and contact information for two referees to [email protected] with subject header “EDITOR.” Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
Bidoun is committed to a diverse workplace and is an equal-opportunity employer. We will not discriminate against any employee or applicant on the basis of age, color, disability, gender, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation, or veteran status.
