Posted Dec 6, 2017 - Requisition No. 63738

Europe's financial services industry, still recovering from the credit crisis a decade ago, is now grappling with Brexit, the MiFID regulatory regime and technologies ranging from blockchain to AI.

Bloomberg's European finance team is looking for an experienced editor with a track record of helping reporters break news and shape agenda-setting stories full of insight and context. This role can be in Frankfurt, Zurich, or Brussels.

We'll trust you to:

  • Take breaking news from the initial headlines to fully blown, agenda-setting follow up and analysis
  • Work with reporters to break news and develop their ideas into both short- and long-form stories (including graphics)
  • Bring your own ideas for stories that are relevant to discerning readers in Europe and around the world
  • Coach reporters, helping to shape ideas and develop projects for all of our platforms
  • Ensuring that stories are told in the most appropriate and creative format

You’ll need to have:

  • Extensive experience in business and financial journalism, mostly as an editor
  • A bachelor's degree
  • A proven ability to handle high-pressure breaking news with speed and accuracy while staying cool and supportive of the reporters
  • A willingness to adapt to change and support innovation

We'd love to see:

  • Local language skills
  • Experience working with reporters in different cities
