The Wall Street Journal is seeking an Asia Political Editor to help drive and shape our coverage of politics and geopolitics in Asia.

The successful candidate will help lead coverage of a region that sits at the epicenter of the major geopolitical realignment currently under way.

Support reporters in identifying novel ways to tell their stories, including through graphics, photos, videos and podcasts. 

Work closely with editors and reporters in other regions to help lead globe-spanning stories. 

Collaborate with colleagues in business, finance and economics in identifying and leading stories at the nexus of geopolitics and money.

You have:

At least several years of editing experience, including a demonstrated ability to handle fast-moving and high-profile news events. 

Sharp news judgment and an ability to work under deadline pressure. 

Strong organizational and communication skills and an ability to lead coverage across bureaus and coverage areas.

To apply, please submit your resume, a cover letter detailing how you would do the job, and five examples of your best work.
