It is an expansive role focused first on Japan – its economy, companies, markets and place in global business. But the mandate spans the region: Identify and bring to life stories about economics, trade, technology, geopolitics, investing and demographics throughout Asia.
The job involves both news and enterprise coverage and requires strong writing and the ability to juggle breaking news, live coverage, analysis, explanation and ambitious features. It also requires regular rotations in general news duty as a partner to the Tokyo bureau chief, working with editors in our Asia newsroom hub in Seoul. We want someone eager to react quickly to news as necessary, but who is also able to write thoughtfully and deeply about issues and events. Our ideal candidate will have experience working with a network of journalists in a variety of countries, a critical foundation for covering such a broad region.
