Managing Editor Jobs in Maryland

A Managing Editor in the publishing industry is responsible for coordinating and overseeing the entire publication process, from manuscript acquisition to finished product. They work closely with authors, editors, designers, and marketing professionals to ensure that projects are completed on time and to the highest standard. Managing Editors oversee all editorial content, make sure it aligns with the publisher's style and standards, and often play a key role in the decision-making process around what to publish. They also manage budgets, schedules, and staff, and may need to solve any problems that arise during the production process.

Some employers may prefer candidates with a master's degree in publishing or an MBA. Job roles a person may have before becoming a Managing Editor include being an Assistant Editor, Associate Editor, or a Senior Editor.
