This role is for a strong meteorologist and self-describing weather nerd to represent CNN Weather on digital platforms and its new mobile product. You'll host livestreams and deliver real-time forecasts and nowcasts, create on-demand videos, and work with the team to produce daily forecasts and write sharp, accurate stories. The ideal candidate is a strong writer and presenter who thrives in the breaking news environment, can deliver level-headed expertise in weather and climate science, and knows how to engage audiences on digital platforms.

The Daily

Collaborate with the team as a meteorologist in the execution of live coverage during hurricanes, tornado outbreaks, severe ice storms, life-threatening floods and more.

Host livestreams for CNN Weather on our mobile platform, delivering forecast analysis and nowcasts with understanding, clarity and confidence.

Script and front video-on-demand packages from quick hits on the weather of the day to deeper explainers.

Participate in live video or text Q&As, incorporate audience questions into our coverage and adapt in the moment as conditions change.

Partner with video producers/editors and motion graphics to build compelling, data-rich visuals that help audiences understand risk and impact.

Report and write urgent, live updating digital coverage for CNN's digital platforms in extreme weather situations.

Shape secondary story ideas and angles around the weather story of the moment, e.g. expanding drought in the American West; deadly "monsoon on steroids" in South Asia; glacier outburst flooding in Alaska.

Work with visual editors to translate complex data into clear graphics, photos and short form video that move the story forward.

File clean, crisp copy on the first draft and be comfortable switching between quick updates and high-concept enterprise as news demands.

At least 3 years of digital editorial experience

Experience covering fast-moving weather on a public-facing platform

Understanding of latest digital video trends, including how to capture, captivate and hold an audience

A collaborative, team-oriented attitude
