Dealreporter seeks senior financial reporter

Dealreporter is looking for a senior financial journalist looking to progress in a career in investigative reporting. The role is based in London and the right candidate will be working in a fast-paced news room that publishes real-time scoops on large cap companies.

The role is entirely focused on off-diary reporting. The right candidate will be as happy working on a story independently as working with a team of sector specialists to stack up a hypothesis. The right candidate will thrive on intellectual challenges and breaking stories.

Candidates should have previous experience at another financial newswire, national newspaper or trade publication, with a proven track record of breaking news.

Applicants need to demonstrate a proven ability to generate leads, make new sources and pick up technical information easy. An established contact book of corporate finance or M&A sources would be required.

Previous experience covering the pharmaceutical or energy sectors would be an advantage, but is not essential. Fluency in a European language is desirable.

Dealreporter’s team of multi-lingual journalists focus on high profile M&A deals and company news as well as providing detailed analysis on the financial health of European large-cap corporates

Dealreporter is a part of the Financial Times group. Dealreporter is a fast-paced news service for hedge funds, prop desks, fixed income investors and ECM desks.
