Marketwatch seeks transparency reporter in DC

MarketWatch is seeking a ‘transparency’ reporter to uncover the hurdles being placed on the individual investor and what, if anything, is being done to resolve them.

The ideal candidate, based in Washington, will not just be on top of the latest developments at the Securities and Exchange Commission, Commodity Futures Trading Commission and more from the regulatory alphabet soup but will be able to explain clearly and concisely how those issues impact the investor.

Topics for examination will include the fracturing stock market, high frequency trading, insider trading and corporate accounting.

Please attach a resume, cover letter and three to five published clips to your online application.

To apply, go here.
