Bloomberg News seeks Google reporter

Bloomberg News is one of the biggest financial and business news organizations in the world. We lead the way in breaking news about mergers and acquisitions, initial public offerings and other events, enabling readers, viewers and listeners to stay a step ahead of the markets.

You love to break news, set the agenda for coverage with smart, timely features and enterprise work, provide instant insight on the trends and developments that shape the world’s largest Internet company, and enjoy diving deep on the people who run Alphabet.

You’re the perfect person to join our Global Technology Group as a reporter covering Alphabet Inc., Google and related Internet and tech stories in San Francisco. You’ll report not just on Google and its parent company, but on the larger industries it now dominates and those it seeks to win in the future: web search and advertising, mobile communications, Internet access, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and other significant themes across the technology beat.

We’ll trust you to:

  • Break news and produce enterprise stories
  • Report with speed and accuracy
  • Build on and develop deep sourcing in the industry
  • Prepare content for a range of platforms
  • Work collaboratively with the bureau and teams across the company

You need to have:

  • A bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience
  • Previous business journalism experience, preferably in technology journalism
  • A proven ability to develop sources
  • An ability to write quickly under pressure
  • Knowledge of Alphabet/Google’s business and Internet industry trends is a plus
