• At least 5-7 years of experience in digital journalism, largely in personal finance, with several years as an editor
• Broad personal finance chops, and preferably specific knowledge of investing and economics topics
• Skill writing compelling headlines and line-editing stories
• A knack for coming up with stories that will drive clicks and traffic online
