CoinDesk is a quickly growing company with incredible ambition. Our global presence has grown exponentially through top quality journalism and events, creating a community for millions of users. We’d love for you to join us if you’re willing to take on new challenges and immerse yourself in a world of creative, forward-thinking individuals.
THE POSITION
As a news editor, you will be a player/coach as well as the news equivalent of air traffic control for CoinDesk in the region.
Your mission: to ensure CoinDesk readers are fully up to date whenever and wherever something happens in the cryptocurrency industry, and that all content is accurate, punctual and written in CoinDesk style.
You could be dealing with a market story one minute, a scoop the next, and spotting a key fact in a central bank statement the minute after that, all while shepherding a long-form feature on the side. A news hound, traffic cop, manager, mentor, writer and editor all combined in one person who plays well with others, communicates clearly, and hates to lose.
Responsibilities:
About You:
The ideal candidate is based in a major Asian financial city such as Singapore or Hong Kong – or is willing and able to relocate – and has at least seven years of journalism experience and familiarity with cryptocurrency and related technologies. Experience covering the sector or equities markets strongly preferred. You are a self-starter with an insatiable intellectual curiosity, a nose for news, and a can-do/collaborative attitude who can both edit and write clear, concise copy on tight deadlines. You plan well for the things that can be anticipated and react quickly to the things that can’t.
