The Bloomberg Washington Bureau is seeking an experienced editor to join our White House team. We need a versatile, hands-on journalist who is capable of fielding breaking news and analysis on a beat that’s closely watched by Bloomberg’s global audience. This editor will work with the White House Team Leader and reporters and will report to the Managing Editor for U.S. Government News.

The successful candidate will edit White House reporting with a focus on the consequences of Washington politics and policy for Bloomberg’s core coverage areas of markets, finance, companies and regulation. This editor will collaborate closely with other teams in Washington and around the global newsroom. We place a premium on scoops and timely analysis pieces.

The ideal candidate has the organizational skills to stay on top of a variety of issues every day. In addition, our editors often are called upon to handle stories from different teams in the bureau as needed and so must be comfortable working on a wide range of topic areas.

Applicants must:

  •   Have experience editing news and enterprise
  •   Know that speed is essential in a competitive wire-service atmosphere
  •   Know how to work closely with reporters and collaborate with other teams to achieve the best work
  •   Be eager to try out various storytelling techniques, including Data Visualization, to explain complex topics to the audience
  •   Be comfortable in a collaborative, dynamic, fast-moving newsroom where news can break at any time
