Bloomberg seeks Quebec business reporter

The energy of a newsroom. The pace of a trading floor. The buzz of a recent tech breakthrough. We work hard, and we work fast – while keeping up the quality and accuracy we’re known for. It’s what keeps us inventing and reinventing, all the time. “Our culture is wide open, just like our spaces.”

We bring out the best in each other. And through our countless volunteer projects, we help bring out the best in the communities around us, too. You can do amazing work here. Work you couldn’t do anywhere else. It’s up to you to make it happen.

You follow some of the most important companies and economic trends in Quebec. You get excited breaking news about company deals, strategies and personalities. You enjoy spending the day out in the field developing sources and visiting company headquarters. You like nothing more than to generate unique, compelling story ideas. You love to collaborate with others. You’d be a great addition to our brand new Montreal office where no two days are alike!

How we work:

Bloomberg is a unique environment where you’ll have lots of support on your stories. This means that keeping people in the loop is required, sharing ideas and information is encouraged and joint bylines are common.

We’ll trust you to:

  • Break news on several Quebec-based companies including Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc., Dollarama Inc., Metro Inc. and CGI Group Inc. ( just to name a few!)
  • Develop sources, visit retailer headquarters, stores and factories
  • Talk about your stories on Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg Radio
  • Cover breaking news with uncanny speed and accuracy
  • Collaborate with colleagues in other bureaus
  • Analyze company and industry data

To apply, go here.
