Senior Technical Writer (Communications)

Radio Free Asia

<div>Overview:
<p>
Who We Are</p><div>
Radio Free Asia (RFA) is a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) media organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., with editorial and operational bureaus in Taipei, Bangkok, and Seoul. A congressionally funded grantee of the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), RFA operates with full editorial independence.</div><p>
Our mission is to provide accurate, uncensored news and information to people living in countries hostile to a free press. We broadcast in nine languages and dialects &mdash; Mandarin, Cantonese, Tibetan, Uyghur, Burmese, Vietnamese, Lao, Khmer, and Korean &mdash; reaching audiences across China, North Korea, Vietnam, Burma, Cambodia, Laos and beyond via shortwave, satellite, and the internet. Our journalists work in some of the world&rsquo;s most difficult media environments, often at considerable personal risk, filling a critical gap in access to truthful, timely news for millions of people who would otherwise have very little of it. That reality shapes everything about how we work and who we hire to lead this organization.</p><p>
Job Summary</p><p>
Reporting to the Executive Editor, the Managing Editor for East Asia is a senior editorial leadership role with full accountability for the performance, editorial standards, and programming output of five language divisions: Mandarin, Tibetan, Cantonese, Uyghur, and Korean.</p><p>
The Managing Editor exercises direct authority over personnel, content, and operations across all five divisions, delegating day-to-day editorial supervision to Directors of News Content and Senior Editors while retaining ultimate responsibility for each team's output. The role carries budget authority across all teams and, as a senior member of the Editorial Management team, is responsible for translating the Executive Editor's strategy into editorial and programming reality across the East Asia region.</p><p>
Success in this role requires the capacity to lead at scale &mdash; setting editorial direction, making high-stakes independent decisions, and driving long-range strategy &mdash; while remaining close enough to daily operations to identify and address performance issues before they compound. The Managing Editor is expected to hold News Content Directors and Senior Editors to clear standards, sustain journalistic quality under pressure, and ensure that RFA's audiences in restrictive environments across Asia receive accurate, independent, and timely news across platforms.</p><p>
Candidates must bring substantial prior experience managing at scale, ideally across multiple news units, either across multiple language services simultaneously, across geographically dispersed news operations, or both.</p>
Responsibilities:
<div><b>
News Management</b></div><ul><li>
Hold direct editorial authority for high impact journalism over the five East Asia language services, setting standards for content quality across Mandarin, Tibetan, Cantonese, Uyghur and Korean programming and holding Directors of News Content and Senior Editors accountable for day-to-day execution</li><li>
Responsible for transforming how East Asia content is produced, shared, and amplified, moving five language teams from parallel operation to active collaboration. The Managing Editor is expected to identify, in real time, when a story, clip, or asset produced by one language team has reached potential across other teams, and to drive its timely repurposing without waiting to be prompted. In partnership with the three other Managing Editors, extends this approach across the full range of RFA language services, ensuring that high-impact journalism finds the broadest possible audience, in as many languages as possible, as quickly as possible.</li><li>
Shares collective responsibility with the three other Managing Editors for the editorial standards and programming quality of RFA as a whole &mdash; not only within East Asia. Working in close partnership with the Senior Editor for Standards and Training, the Managing Editor is expected to continuously assess the quality of output across the East Asia divisions, identify patterns of editorial weakness before they become systemic, and ensure that the right personnel are targeted for training and development. This is a proactive standard-setting function, not a reactive one.</li><li>
Serve as a first point of escalation for complex legal and ethical issues within the East Asia editorial teams, coordinating with RFA's legal counsel and human resources to ensure matters are addressed in accordance with RFA's rigorous ethical standards.</li></ul><div></div><div><b><br>
