Toronto

The Logic is hiring a senior editor to run our flagship editorial product. This is a job for an editor who is ready to step into a leadership role in our growing newsroom and elevate our coverage of Canadian business and technology.

About The Logic The Logic is a leading source of business and technology news in Canada, offering subscribers in-depth reporting on the businesses, people and policies that move the country forward.

Founded in 2018, we are backed by the Financial Times, with headquarters in Toronto and bureaus in Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa and Montreal. The Logic’s award-winning original journalism reaches hundreds of thousands of Canadians through our website and app, a suite of newsletters and a slate of in-person and virtual events including The Logic Summit. Our work is syndicated to a global audience of financial professionals.

Our subscribers are at the centre of everything we do—and we believe Canadian journalism has a bright future.

About the role:

The Logic Briefing is one of the key ways our journalism reaches our readers. Every weekday afternoon it explains what matters and why, to subscribers who run Canadian business, tech and government. It is our most-read product, and it requires an editor who wakes up each day excited about making it better.

As senior editor, you will run the Briefing. You will decide what our reporters cover each day, assigning them and editing their copy on deadline. You will set the sked, write the display and get it out the door.

We need a creative editor with ideas about what newsletters can be, and with the rigour to test them—an innovator and a strategic thinker. Beyond the Briefing, you will lead the development of new newsletters and editorial products. You will also edit news stories and features, and help run the newsroom itself, assisting with planning newsroom coverage, the editorial calendar and building and managing the systems that help a small team punch well above its weight.

Reporting to the managing editor, you will be part of the newsroom’s leadership team. If you are an editor who has been waiting for the chance to step up, this is it.

The successful candidate will have sharp news judgment, a fast and clean editing hand and a love for the daily news cycle. They will be meticulous,



thinking in plans and processes and taking pleasure in making the machine run, but also someone who relishes surprising and delighting our readers with an unexpected choice or a well-turned phrase. They will be cool under pressure, a explicit communicator and a consummate newsroom diplomat.

They will be comfortable with numbers and data. They will have a working familiarity with Canadian media law. And they will be eager to help build a collegial, collaborative, goal-oriented newsroom that treats all its members with respect.

This is a full-time staff job with a salary range of $90,637 to $120,850. It is ideally based in Toronto, where The Logic offers a hybrid work arrangement. An exceptional candidate may be based elsewhere in Canada, but will work a schedule that aligns with the Eastern Time Zone.
