    Default job background
    Description

    The Dallas Morning News is looking for an experienced editor to lead our enterprise-focused public safety team holding courts and law enforcement accountable in the country's ninth-largest city anchoring the fourth-largest metro area.

    Our goal is to be the No. 1 regional news organization in the U.S.

    Making that happen depends on developing reporters that can regularly produce groundbreaking, community-changing journalism that helps Dallas and the D-FW Metroplex understand and overcome its challenges, holds our community leaders accountable and highlights the good work taking place around us.


    We value stories with impact that are driven by people-focused writing supported by facts, data and information our readers won't find anywhere else.

    Our public safety team is small, but packs a punch.

    In the past year, it has written about:

    • How the Dallas Police Department lost thousands of pieces of video evidence
    • The lack of accountability provided by Dallas' citizen police oversight board
    • A judge who scheduled more than 100 trials in a single day and sent prosecutors scrambling to prepare for all of them
    • The increase in gun and drug trafficking across the Texas-Mexico border
    • A man who died in police custody, but his family was never told officials ruled their son's death a homicide


    The public safety editor will work with a team of reporters emphasizing the development of their enterprise reporting and writing skills.

    The goal is to help them exercise and develop solid news judgment and strong sourcing that leads to impactful journalism.

    With the help of this editor, the public safety team's work should be insightful and focus on stories and projects with the potential to transform Dallas.

    The ideal editor will help develop a collaborative, inclusive culture in our newsroom.

    They'll lead from a position of honesty, integrity and trust that inspires their team and helps to strengthen our newsroom's resolve as one team working toward a shared objective.

    By being transparent and accountable, they will make sure the public safety team's course is clearly charted.

    When the work is difficult, they'll lead with positivity, exhibiting compassion and empathy for the reporting team and the subjects they write about.

    The public safety editor will report to our assistant managing editor for news.

    • Storytelling skills
    • The ability to coach writers and reporters through difficult stories
