Debtwire seeks reporter in New York

Debtwire, part of The Mergermarket Group, the leading global provider of intelligence and research on the fixed income market has an immediate opening in its New York Office.

This position requires a minimum of one to two years of financial journalism experience.

Coverage includes middle market debt issues throughout their life cycle — from primary issuance through restructuring and bankruptcy.

You must be able to work independently by hitting the phones and networking to build up your sources as well as collaboratively with a dynamic team of journalists and analysts.
