About Psychology Today
Psychology Today is the world's largest behavioral science media enterprise, reaching millions of readers through PsychologyToday.com, the print magazine, and a growing suite of social platforms. PT seeks a talented and creative individual who is comfortable working across all verticals to create valuable content and help draw a new generation of readers to the brand.
About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to make an impact in multiple domains, including mental health, behavioral science, journalism, and online culture. The Associate Editor will generate content across online, print, and social platforms and manage relationships with our large network of expert contributors. The ideal candidate can assess content for both scientific rigor and for SEO/AEO/GEO reach. Day-to-day responsibilities include handling contributor queries and onboarding, supporting planning and budget tracking, contributing to content packaging, and additional admin duties.
The role also has a meaningful social media dimension: The ideal candidate thinks creatively across social media platforms, including Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, additional platforms, and is actively experimenting with AI tools to generate visuals, graphics, and new content formats.
Requirements
Strong writing and editing fundamentals are essential, as is familiarity with SEO and content management systems. A background in translational science writing and/or clinical or research psychology is encouraged, but a fast learner with the right instincts is welcome to apply.
We seek sharp editorial judgment, strong people skills for managing contributor relationships, and the creative initiative to pitch and execute new ideas and verticals.
To Apply
Please submit a brief cover letter that characterizes the editorial content currently on the Psychology Today homepage (including any changes you'd suggest) and describes your relationship with social media, including any platforms, accounts, or projects you've built or contributed to.
Please send your social media handles.About the company
