Strong capabilities in strategy, financial management, commercial partnerships, sponsorship, and revenue growth are required, along with sound judgment and a delivery-focused approach. The successful candidate will be an authentic, compelling communicator with proven media skills and the ability to build relationships across diverse stakeholder groups. Understanding the media industry and the future of journalism is important; experience in nonprofit, member-based, professional, arts, or media organizations is valued.
