Job Description

The Real Deal, an award-winning publication that covers the real estate industry in New York, Miami and Los Angeles — with San Francisco on the way — is looking for a managing editor to join our L.A. bureau.

The right candidate possesses a sharp eye for news, knows how to turn a good story into a great story and works well under deadline. We need a quick thinker with a flexible nature who will cultivate sources and generate scoops as well as assign and edit stories.
