Reuters is looking for a correspondent to take on coverage of the French telecoms beat.
The sector has been one of the most active in the last few years with a disruptive newcomer setting off vicious price wars, another entrant setting off a new round of deals both at home and abroad, and policymakers struggling to work out what is in the long-term best interest of the sector and consumers.
It is a sector full of colorful personalities both in the companies and the government trying to monitor and control them. The successful candidate will have excellent source-building skills to break news in a very competitive sector and a flair for eye-catching writing.
They will also need to work closely with their counterpart on the French local language service, the regional TMT Specialist, colleagues on the corporate finance team and correspondents in other countries.
Aside from covering the core telecoms sector and related stocks, the successful candidate will also work flexibly with the rest of the Paris bureau, jumping in to help with big stories on other patches and taking their share of equities/MPG slots. Good French is needed.
Qualifications
– At least two years of reporting experience
– Excellent news judgment
– Good, quick writing skills
– French language skills necessary
– Ability to work in virtual teams
– Proven ability to build sources and break news
