WAW Al-Balad Magazine is an online Jordanian magazine, published by Al-Balad Theater, specialized in arts and culture and interested in disseminating knowledge about artistic and cultural activities in Jordan and those working in this wide field, in addition to publishing critical technical articles.

The magazine's team is looking for a chief editor for the WAW Al-Balad magazine (website and application) who has experience in media work and arts. This job is a part-time one but flexible and it is preferable that the person who takes on this task has an interest and passion for this magazine and its goals.

2. Experience and/or interest in arts and culture in general and writing in particular.
3. Experience and/or interest in working with young people.
4. Ability to manage content and editing in the field of written and audio/audible journalism in order to achieve factors that attract attention and excitement.
5. Ability to choose appropriate designs and pictures for the magazine.
6. Experience working in a team and managing teamwork in a participatory way.

WAW Al Balad Magazine:

The Arabic letter WAW is the 27th letter of the Arabic alphabet, but it is no ordinary letter. When placed before a noun the letter waw takes on numerous connotations: togetherness, sympathy, dependency, and an oath. In English, it is an acronym for what is happening and where? Why is it taking place and who is doing it? Will I be able to get there? WOW, that was a great event! This magazine was named WAW in the hope that it will prove to be as diverse, rich, friendly, and inspiring as the Arabic letter WAW.
