Overview

Audience Editor, Northeast, Eater — New York, NY. As part of Eater’s mission to build the world’s best restaurant recommendation platform, our Dining team shapes restaurant coverage that helps readers decide where to eat — and why it matters. In this role, you’ll create engaging, trustworthy stories that reflect Eater’s voice and values, hone your voice as a guide and tastemaker for New York, demonstrate local authority, and ensure our work reaches audiences where they are and makes an impact. All staffers at Eater work across Eater’s umbrella of brands (Eater, Punch, Pre Shift, Thrillist) on a variety of platforms (on-site, social video, newsletter, the app, and more). You should be comfortable dining out for work and filing dining reports afterward, and be willing to participate in social video, including potentially appearing on camera. Staffers are expected to represent Eater at industry events, brand events, and media and press opportunities.
