Bloomberg seeks Americas energy editor in Houston

Bloomberg News is looking for a versatile and energetic editor to join its commodities and energy group in the Americas. From breaking news on corporate mergers to major moves in global commodity markets to the latest pledges to curb carbon emissions, Bloomberg’s coverage in this area is broad, fast-paced and deeply reported. We need someone who can work closely with reporters on tight deadlines to cut through industry jargon and explain important and complex ideas to a global audience.

You will have:

  •   Several years of experience of business or economic news reporting in a real-time environment, ideally with good knowledge of the energy and commodity markets
  •   Strong writing skills and a creative sensibility
  •   Good people skills and a willingness to collaborate across the organization
  •   A sense of urgency and an understanding of what our readers want
