InsideSources seeks business reporter

InsideSources is growing its team. It’s seeking a reporter with experience covering business and finance, particularly with a focus on policy and regulation.

It’s looking for a reporter with an ability to look beyond the stories covered by other outlets. The company believes there’s a problem with the group think that is the hallmark of much of the media. This “conventional wisdom” is too often incorrect. Ideal applicants should be able to identify smart coverage that our readers won’t find on other sites.

Applicants should have a minimum of 4 years journalism experience, along with a background in economics or finance.

The employee can choose to be based in either Washington or New York.

Salary commensurate with experience.

To apply: please send resume and 3-5 clips to shawn@insidesources.com
