Business Insider seeks finance reporter

Business Insider is looking for a fun finance geek to join the team.

Business Insider’s Finance vertical covers financial professionals and everything they do. A basic understanding of what Wall Street’s banks, private equity firms, hedge funds, and other firms do is key, as is an understanding of global financial markets.

The ideal candidate will have an understanding of Wall Street’s business and culture, and, most importantly, be excited about chasing down news and open to adventure.

This candidate should be ready to write about what Wall Streeters need to know, and also about what they want to know.

Strong communications skills are a must, and the ability to separate the boring from the interesting is important.

Apply with your resume and cover letter.

Please note that this position requires that you work in our Manhattan office. Business Insider offers competitive compensation packages complete with benefits.

To apply, go here.
