Mergermarket, an online financial news service, is looking for a full-time reporter to cover consumer and retail companies from New York.
The role involves interviewing senior executives and other sources to uncover firms’ corporate strategies, including M&A and capital raising plans. It is entirely focused on off-diary/enterprise reporting and is a great opportunity for a reporter looking to move into an investigative journalism position.
The right candidate needs to be able to generate original story ideas, make new sources and quickly pick up financial information. An established source book of sector, corporate finance or M&A sources is preferred, though applicants with a strong networking ability will be considered. The right candidate should be as happy reporting a story independently as working with a team of reporters based around the world.
Key Skills:
* Keen interest in business news, mergers and acquisitions
* Ability to interview senior executives and dealmakers
* Ability to pick up on trends and develop original angles for stories
* At least one year of relevant experience or internships with newswires or newspapers
