Private Equity International seeks reporter

Private Equity International is looking to add a reporter with strong news values to its ranks in New York City.

Joining us to work on the industry-leading magazine and website Private Equity International (www.privateequityinternational.com), the successful candidate will contribute to our Americas-focused private equity coverage, working with the title’s US-based journalists to deliver breaking news, deep market insight and standout analysis of industry-shaping trends and events.

You’ll be an established reporter with a track record of building contacts and breaking news stories. You’ll be the kind of journalist who’s not content with sitting behind a desk all day, waiting for stories to come to you; you’ll enjoy getting out into the market and building relationships with key industry players, and then using those relationships to deliver great content for readers across a variety of formats, both online and in print.

You’ll also have a demonstrable interest in finance; at least one year’s experience in a journalist role; outstanding writing skills; a great nose for a story; a penchant for network-building; first-hand knowledge of contemporary methods in digital journalism, and a proven interest in magazine craft. Able and keen to travel for business, you have the right to live and work in the US and are preferably based in NYC already.

This is a rare opportunity for an ambitious individual seeking to advance their career in one of the most dynamic segments of global finance, as part of a growing company. PEI is an independent media group with offices in London, New York and Hong Kong; it focuses exclusively on the alternative asset classes of private equity, private real estate, private debt and infrastructure.
