The New York Times is looking for a highly motivated and energetic reporter to join its finance team. The ideal candidate would:
- Be deeply sourced on Wall Street, or demonstrate a proven ability to build sources on a beat
- Be ready to embrace coverage of some of the least understood but most potent aspects of Wall Street
- Pursue both scoops and enterprise reporting; be a willing collaborator and write with narrative flair
This reporter would focus on writing about the unregulated and lightly regulated aspects of Wall Street, including private equity funds, hedge funds, the giant asset manager, as well as the dealings of billionaire investors and other pools of private capital.
