Reuters is looking for a dynamic and talented journalist to deputize for the Korea bureau chief and drive the busy financial news file from Seoul.
South Korea is Asia’s fourth-largest economy and home to some of the world’s biggest companies including Samsung and Hyundai. The country punches above its weight in everything from technology and ship-building to cosmetics, education and popular culture, but fast-aging South Korea is struggling to ease its reliance on manufactured exports and become a more creative and domestically driven economy.
We are looking for a journalist who can conceptualize, write and edit insightful and distinctive stories across asset classes explaining South Korea and its often-opaque corporate sector to a global audience.
The deputy bureau chief will write stories under her/his own byline and work with team members and regional editors to help ensure that the Korea file shines. We’re looking for a team player with strong communication skills and an eye to improving bureau processes and speed, comfortable writing trunk stories and sending fast and accurate headlines under tight competitive pressure. The deputy bureau chief will also pitch in to help with a busy general news file that features one of the best-read stories globally in North Korea.
