Bisnow OverviewBisnow is the leading B2B media platform powering the commercial real estate industry. We connect CRE professionals through award-winning news, high-impact events, marketing solutions, recruiting services, and sales enablement tools that drive real business results.
With 1.7M+ subscribers and 400+ events annually across 47 markets in the U.S., Canada, the UK, Ireland, and the Netherlands, we don’t just cover the industry, we help move it forward.
We inform. We connect. We create opportunities that turn into deals. Global mindset. Hyper‑local execution.
Senior Editor RoleWe’re seeking a sharp, creative and obsessively curious Senior Editor to help lead Bisnow’s flagship daily newsletter, read by tens of thousands across the commercial real estate industry. This role is equal parts newsletter architect, data sleuth and trend forecaster. You’ll help set the tone and direction for our most visible product — shaping daily news coverage, uncovering rising markets and asset classes and delivering sharp analysis rooted in proprietary and outside‑box data.
You’ll contribute original writing and strategic editorial vision to the newsletter itself — including a regular in‑depth column that anchors the edition with voice, insight and edge.
You will also manage and edit three beat reporters focused on hyper‑local high‑impact CRE news and enterprise reporting in their own cities.
This is a high‑autonomy, high‑visibility role for someone who understands both real estate and the art of writing and reporting that demands to be read. You’ll help steer the daily rhythm, but also elevate the team's work with exclusive charts, smart curation of research and deeper dives into what’s shaping CRE today — and what’s coming next.
