The Opportunity Editor: Where Your Journalism Skills Can Drive Business Impact If you're a former journalist ready to expand your storytelling impact beyond traditional media, this Senior Editor role at Method is your compelling next chapter. You'll use the same instincts for news and trends, research skills, and narrative craft that made you successful in journalism. But now you'll help innovative companies tell their stories directly to the audiences that matter most. Why This Role Is Ideal for You Working alongside a team of former top-tier journalists, you'll maintain the editorial rigor and storytelling standards you're accustomed to, while gaining valuable business experience.

You'll work directly with clients - from initial strategy sessions through content creation and delivery - gaining exposure to the insights that matter most while leveraging your proven ability to distill complex information into compelling narratives. Beyond Traditional Journalism: This role offers the resources and time to explore different sectors thoroughly, collaborate with other experienced journalists, and see your work activated across multiple platforms to drive real business outcomes for our clients. You'll contribute to new-business pitches, helping potential clients envision how strategic storytelling can transform their market position. And you'll be helping drive Method's mission: We partner with companies challenging industry norms, giving you the opportunity to tell stories about genuine innovation rather than incremental changes.
