Insider seeks a reporter to cover millennial investing

February 9, 2021

Posted by Chris Roush

Insider is looking for a full-time Millennial Investing reporter to help grow our Markets Insider site.

Markets Insider is a global real-time markets data destination that has recently celebrated its fourth birthday. We’ve grown a lot in that time, and we’re looking for the right reporter to help us continue that growth in a new and exciting way.

The ideal candidate is someone who reads the WallStreetBets subreddit for fun, and is fascinated by the day-trader movement that’s disrupting the entire market. If you breathlessly keep up on the latest meme stocks and are familiar with how young traders transact advice and ideas online, you could be the perfect person to guide us through a post-GameStop world.

We want someone with their finger on the pulse of millennial trading culture: the online forums they frequent, their investing behavior, the Robinhood-style brokerages they use, and the influence they wield over the broader market. This role will involve staying on the cutting edge of millennial and Gen Z investing trends.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Gets excited by the new generation of investors transforming the market
  • Is intrigued by the exciting, playful online subculture surrounding millennial investing
  • Wants to know how millennials are transacting their money — what they’re doing with it, and through what mediums
  • Understands how the levers of the market are connected
  • Is a self-starter with a focus on constant self-improvement
  • Works at lightning speed
  • Has impeccable writing and editing skills
  • Has experience as a reporter on a business or markets beat

This is a full-time position. Insider Inc. offers competitive compensation and full benefits packages.

If this sounds like your dream job, apply here with a single PDF containing your resume/CV and cover letter. If you’re passionate about this role but don’t have 100% of the experience we’re looking for, apply anyways — we still want to hear from you!

Insider Inc. employees are working remotely until July 2021. When the work from home period is over, this position will be based out of our New York City office.
