Who we are
Semafor is a global news platform for an increasingly complex world in which consumers are overwhelmed by too many news sources and unsure what to trust. We are building Semafor to enable world-class journalists to deliver reporting and insights with rigor in journalistic forms that ensure a new level of transparency. Our editors and reporters distill the most important stories from all over in formats that uncover the forces shaping the stories, explain the interests behind polarizing narratives, and replenish the stock of shared facts. As a global platform, Semafor recognizes that smart people can disagree and that informed readers need to understand alternative points of view from competing centers of power and culture in a multi-polar world. Want to join us? Read on.
About this Role
Semafor seeks recent college graduates with experience working in communications, on Capitol Hill, or within executive offices to support our flagship live journalism events in a temporary role to prepare our journalists, speakers, and attendees for participation at our flagship convening, Silicon Valley & The World. You will collaborate with our content, programming, and events teams to develop briefing materials, prepare background research, gather biographies, and organize key event logistical information. The ideal candidate is highly organized and has an extreme attention to detail, independently motivated, and exceptionally responsive. This is more than an administrative and operations role; it is a fast-paced command center position at the intersection of media, live production, and executive operations.
