In a word, this opportunity is huge. ARTnews is looking for a managing editor to oversee the production of the monthly title, which, as you know, means being part of the most widely circulated art magazine in the world. Yeah, like we said, huge.

Your average day will consist of setting deadlines and tracking the flow of all copy, art and layouts, while coordinating the photo editor, art director and editors for a timely close. Of course, you’ll also be editing articles and signing off on final pages, but website updates will be on your plate, too. The editorial calendar will be a collaborative effort between you, the editors and the publisher, but none of this should come as a surprise to the ideal candidate.

At least 10 years of editorial experience, plus knowledge of art history and the contemporary art world are must-haves. Quark should be your best friend, and meticulous creative minds are most welcome. Interested? Apply here.

Want to be the only designer on your block employed by a company founded by a 1534 royal charter? Well, here’s your ticket to legitimately name dropping Henry VIII at parties and more review copies than are prudent for an urban dweller. The New York City office of Cambridge University Press is searching for a designer to create primo promotions—from direct mailers and other printed marketing materials to advertisements and web-based promotions—for some of the around 1,200 new books it produces each year (and that’s not even counting its historic Bibles list!). The Press is seeking candidates with a degree in graphic design, a couple of years worth of similar experience, working knowledge of the Adobe trio (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop) and Dreamweaver, as well as a strong eye for detail and proofreading skills. And if you’ve spent any time in the Boston area, remember, that’s home to the “other” Cambridge.
