The Keene Sentinel is looking for a full-time copy and weekend editor to join the newsroom team serving communities in southwestern New Hampshire.

We are an independent, digital-first news organization that has been locally owned since its founding in 1799, and we publish both online and six days a week in print.

Our newsroom is committed to building trust with our readers and values solid enterprise and solutions-oriented journalism in service to our region, and the copy editor will be an integral part of a team-oriented news staff pursuing that mission.

The copy editor will edit local news stories and wire content as well as lay out pages for the print edition of the paper. The editor will also direct any breaking news coverage during the weekend and post content on social media. Some weekend shifts will include reporting duties.

We’re looking for someone with solid news judgment, strong editing and headline-writing skills, curiosity and a love of fact-checking and grammar.

The Sentinel is an equal opportunity employer and offers a comprehensive benefits package and an excellent working environment.
