Business Insider seeks markets research editor

Business Insider is looking for a finance geek to join our growing Markets team.

The ideal candidate should be comfortable working with a wide array of financial market and economic topics. Work experience in finance is a plus.

The research editor will have an eye for interesting nuggets of information about companies, industries, and markets and economy in general.  We get mountains of research notes, papers, and surveys from sell-side firms, consulting firms, government agencies, non-profit organizations, etc. Often times the most interesting and eye-opening stuff come from the buried details.

The editor will coordinate with BI’s various verticals, pitch ideas, and write regularly.

The candidate should have strong communications skills and the ability to separate the boring from the interesting. This job is all about sifting through information to uncover gems.

If you are interested, please apply here. Include your resume and three journalism clips you are most proud of.

This job is full-time and based in our New York City headquarters. Business Insider offers competitive compensation packages complete with benefits.
