In addition to writing for Kiplinger’s monthly print publications–including Kiplinger’s Retirement Report and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine–the successful applicant will work closely with and contribute to our award-winning website, www.kiplinger.com.

A bachelor’s degree and reporting experience are required. Subject area expertise in retirement topics and personal finance are highly desired plusses.
