Bloomberg News is looking for a talented, resourceful and versatile journalist to join the EMEA Markets Editing team.

This is an opportunity to shape stories across stocks, credit, emerging markets, FX and rates markets in a variety of formats. You will be challenged to think creatively about stories and elevate our work to a global audience, as well as handle quick turnarounds on breaking news and speedy market analysis. You’ll have the versatility and wherewithal to edit a range of subjects, and your coverage universe will span the breadth of the financial markets.

You’re a self-starter with a strong work ethic, a quick study who thrives under pressure and can navigate unfamiliar territory with aplomb. You are an efficient and well-rounded editor who’s agile enough to jump across different markets and can collaborate with a variety of teams and personalities.

You produce crisp and concise edits that resonate with a wide audience -- from our most sophisticated terminal users to our casual online readers. We’ll expect you to contribute across platforms to elevate copy, mentor reporters and shape compelling story ideas. You’ll help us handle the volume of day-to-day news flow and be strongly encouraged to lead high-impact, enterprise stories that raise the bar of our markets coverage. 

We'll trust you to:

  •  Edit short- and long-form copy. Be game for everything from short, bullet-point blasts to complex, ambitious enterprise.
  •  Work closely with reporters to develop and refine their stories.
  •  Cut through jargon, and make complex stories appealing and understandable to a broad business audience.

You'll need to have:

  •  A minimum of 5 years of recent financial journalism experience
  •  Intellectual curiosity and strong news judgement 
  •  Top-notch writing skills and the ability to craft concise, clean prose under deadline pressure
  •  The ability to work in a big, fast-paced newsroom and collaborate with various stakeholders

Apply if you think we're a good match. We'll get in touch to let you know that the next steps are, but in the meantime feel free to have a look at:
