Job Opening: Editor for City Weekend Beijing
Deadline: 7 May 2011

City Weekend Beijing is hiring a full-time editor to cover nightlife and related beats. If you love partying with glamorous people, dubstep, sweaty punk rock shows and a well-mixed martini—all at the same time—this is your dream job. It is a great opportunity for an editor to dig deeply into the Shanghai party scene and reveal to the world what goes on here after midnight.

We are looking for editorial candidates with the usual qualifications:

- Native English speaker

- 2 years editorial/writing experience

- Mandarin ability

- Demonstrated leadership ability

- Detail oriented

- Deadline obsessive

EVEN MORE THAT THAT, we are looking for an editor who is a self-starter, likes a fast pace and has the will to take ownership of this important section.

City Weekend uses the latest technology to publish our magazines. We use the Woodwing system, have a fully-functional photo database and we leverage our innovative user-generated website (www.cityweekend.com.cn) to allow editors to achieve maximum efficiency.

We can do this because City Weekend is owned by Ringier, a Swiss publishing group with 180 years of history. You will be supported by a full staff of designers, sales, photographers, bloggers and IT personnel. This is an excellent opportunity to put your editorial/media career into high gear. Competitive salary commensurate with experience, full medical benefits and expense budget included.

Send CV and statement of interest to Lee Mack at leemack@ringeirasia.com. Position closes May 7.
