The Company
Few organizations can keep up with the fast-paced, 24/7 nature of today's media
coverage; even fewer can claim to have helped shape it. Bloomberg has long been
a leading source of data and news and presents one of the most challenging
environments in financial journalism. Bloomberg offers a unique opportunity to produce real-time stories that shape the markets and our world.
The Role
Bloomberg News is seeking an experienced editor for its U.S. Stocks team in New York. The editor will be responsible for stories about the movements of the major equity benchmarks (S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average), interviews with prominent money managers and investment strategists, and breaking news on stock exchanges and electronic trading venues. The ideal candidate will also have several years of experience editing feature stories, at least five years of
experience in business journalism, and be able to produce clear, concise and accurate copy under deadline pressure. The editor will also be expected to serve as a mentor and coach to reporters and should be comfortable working within a team environment.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor¿s degree or equivalent experience
- Knowledge of the economy, financial markets, and business
- Minimum of five years of experience in business journalism
