Job Overview:

This is a 3 to 6 month commitment with an expectation of 20-30hrs of work per week.

Medium has launched a collection of subscription-based publications that cover a range of subjects with the goal of serving readers, not advertisers. We are looking for a Photo Editor who will raise the bar for how photography is presented across these publications, which include GEN (politics) OneZero (technology), Elemental (health), ZORA (Women of color), Forge (personal development), Marker (business and entrepreneurship), and LEVEL (black and brown men).

The right person for this role is someone with outstanding taste and vision, and has commissioned original, forward-thinking photography across a wide range of surfaces. We want a digital-first, energetic, and versatile individual who can think creatively about how stories can be told visually.

The ideal candidate has experience working with editorial, is a highly effective collaborator, and has an extensive network of photographers. This person must be comfortable in a fast-paced, digital startup culture and be ready to get hands-on (and have fun!) helping to grow something new.

At Medium, we foster an inclusive, supportive, fun yet challenging team environment. We value having a team that is made up of a diverse set of backgrounds and respect the healthy expression of diverse opinions. We embrace experimentation and the examination of all kinds of ideas through reasoning and testing. Come join us as we continue to change the world of digital media. Medium is an equal opportunity employer.
