Contact us if you are:

  • relentlessly committed to highly original reporting on stories that really matter
  • reliable at turning in excellent stories under tight deadlines
  • excited about experimenting with different forms of storytelling, on a variety of digital platforms as well as in print
  • knowledgeable and passionate about finance and business
  • recognized as an authority in your chose coverage area, with unrivaled sourcing

The work of this team will be published across the Barron’s Group, in print and online. The reporters will write frequently, though the main priority will be to produce original, richly-reported journalism and artful storytelling. We will be especially focused on three core areas: finance, policy, and tech.
