    For more than 30 years, RACER has set the standard for motorsports coverage in North America. Now, we’re widening our lens.

    The Culture Editor will be responsible for writing and curating content relevant to motorsport and automotive culture. This is a wide-ranging brief that will allow us to explore the competitive and performance automotive world from every angle: one moment you’ll be writing about upcoming auctions or vintage meetups; the next, you’ll be going into the weeds on sim racing rigs.

    The focus is not so much the racing itself – that's what the rest of our site is for – but more on everything that happens around it. A deep understanding of the many ways car and racing enthusiasts indulge their passion is essential to the role.

    Experience in podcasting or other scenarios where you’ve been required to speak on camera will be viewed favorably.

    WHAT YOU’LL DO

    Take ownership of the newly-launched Culture section of RACER.com, producing and curating content relevant to the section’s scope under the direction of the RACER.com editor, and using a combination of original reporting and supplied assets

    Develop industry relationships across the space

    Update event calendars

    Support main RACER.com site operations as needed

    WHAT YOU’LL BRING

    Expansive knowledge of the automotive/motorsports world, and insatiable appetite for learning more about it – and sharing that knowledge and enthusiasm

    Meticulous attention to detail

    Superior writing, proofreading and copy-editing skills

    Experience working with a CMS

    Solid editorial judgment

    Familiarity with AP style

    Basic video editing skills are a plus
