Reuters seeks two M&A correspondents

Reuters is looking for ambitious M&A Correspondents who thrive on big scoops to be part of its deals team in New York and report on mergers and acquisitions. We have two openings for M&A Correspondents: one to cover the healthcare and industrial sectors and another focused-on consumer and retail.

About the Role

As a M&A Correspondent, you will:

  • Consistently break market-moving news on major deals in corporate America and collaborate with other deal reporters across the world
  • Contribute to insightful and high-impact stories alongside finance and companies’ reporters
  • Take readers inside board rooms and shed new light on the key decision-makers
  • Have a deep understanding of how corporate executives and dealmakers operate
  • Possess exceptional source-building and networking skills
  • Be dedicated to being first and setting the news agenda

About You

You’re a fit for the role of M&A Correspondent if you likely have:

  • At least 3 years’ experience of companies-related reporting
  • A strong track record of scoops
  • M&A reporting experience preferred but not a must
  • Familiarity with the health care and industrial sectors, or retail and consumer, is a plus
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent
