It’s what readers of every news story wonder on some level, and in a financial climate with boundless opportunity for bad decision making, answering it has never been more important. We are experiencing a cultural moment in which long-held attitudes about consumerism, capitalism, and the meaning of professional success are being challenged.
MarketWatch casts a wide net in its personal finance coverage. We strive to keep readers informed about core personal finance topics such as credit-card debt, student loans, taxes, and mortgage rates, but we also want to enlighten our audience about new trends related to how people manage (or don’t manage) their money.
You will write accessible, reader-friendly stories on a daily basis, and also craft longer features, both anticipating and analyzing consumer trends. You will be part of a small team of writers, and report to MarketWatch’s Personal Finance Editor.
The role will be based in New York, though other locations will be considered on merit.
