Description
About Us: Straight Arrow is fearlessly dedicated to exposing the hard truths in the stories that are dividing Americans today. We prize stories that connect to our audiences’ daily lives. Check us out at www.san.com and on the Straight Arrow mobile app. Straight Arrow is building a different kind of news company: one that helps people understand the world without telling them what to think.
Through fact-based reporting, transparent sourcing, and multiple perspectives, we help audiences cut through the noise and stay informed. Our newsletters are among the most important ways we build trust with readers, creating a direct relationship that is personal, useful, and habit-forming.
We're looking for a Newsletter Editor to lead the editorial voice, content strategy, and daily execution of our growing newsletter portfolio.
The Role

You'll own the daily production and writing of Unbiased Updates , our flagship newsletter, while editing and optimizing our growing portfolio of topical subscriber-exclusive newsletters, including Media Miss , Health(y) Discourse , and Confidential Informant .
The ideal candidate is equal parts editor, curator, audience strategist, and newsletter operator. You should have strong news judgment, a deep understanding of what makes readers engage with journalism, and a passion for creating newsletter experiences that readers genuinely look forward to opening.
You'll help determine not only which stories deserve attention each day, but how those stories should be packaged, contextualized, tested, and presented to maximize reader value and engagement.

Ensure every newsletter reflects a clear, consistent brand voice.
Editing & Content Strategy
Edit weekly newsletters written by subject matter experts and reporters, including Media Miss, Health(y) Discourse, and Confidential Informant.
Ensure newsletters maintain high editorial standards, strong reader value, and consistent presentation.
Work closely with content leaders and writers to strengthen newsletter storytelling, structure, and audience appeal.
Identify opportunities to surface additional Straight Arrow’s reporting and create deeper pathways into our journalism.
Audience Growth & Engagement
Partner closely with Audience, Marketing, and Content leaders to align newsletter strategy with company goals.
Use audience insights to shape content decisions, newsletter structure, and reader journeys.
Develop strategies to increase open rates, click-through rates, engagement, and subscriber retention.
