Bloomberg seeks corporate finance reporter in London

The energy of a newsroom. The pace of a trading floor. We work hard and we work fast, moving markets and chronicling the rise and fall of the people who make them. We are known for our quality, accuracy and ability to deliver news investors can use. It’s what keeps us inventing and re-inventing, all the time.

You’d be part of a team that covers Europe’s credit markets from distressed debt, derivatives and leveraged loans to investment-grade bonds and asset-backed securities. You get excited about breaking news and beating the competition on products, strategies and personalities. You love generating unique and compelling ideas for stories that will have serious impact. You are just as comfortable taking the lead as working with teammates. You will be a great addition to our London office that serves as the European headquarters to one of the smartest and boldest media organizations in the world.

We’ll trust you to:

  • Break news on bond and loan markets
  • Lean on existing sources and develop new ones to generate intelligent, impactful, market-moving news
  • Talk about your stories on Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg Radio
  • Cover breaking news with speed and accuracy
  • Analyse industry data
  • Write insightful, thought-provoking stories that add value
  • Collaborate with colleagues across teams and countries

You’ll need to have:

  • A bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience
  • Previous financial markets or business journalism experience
  • Experience of working in a real-time news environment
  • An ability to generate exclusive, breaking news as well as informative feature stories

We’d love to see:

  • European language skills
