Wall Street and Silicon Valley have never been more tightly intertwined, and their relationship has never been more important. The Information is building a Finance section that will give its readers a commanding and authoritative mix of scoops and insight that spans both coasts, fueled by inside information from the most important players in finance.
We are looking for someone who is excited about helping build an all-star team that will deliver big scoops and offer best-in-class insight and analysis. The possibilities for this team are endless, and we’re just getting started.

Mainstream giants like PayPal, Visa and Mastercard have plenty of tech ambitions themselves. There’s a huge opportunity to tell impactful stories about an industry that quietly touches nearly everyone’s life every day.
High-caliber reporters are the lifeblood of our business, and we firmly believe in rewarding those reporters’ performance. Our audience is full of influential, smart people – you’ll find that many of your sources are regular readers of The Information. We don’t have story or click quotas. We don’t play whack-a-mole with breaking news. We don’t have editors trying to reverse-engineer SEO. We don’t have a million editing layers and a bunch of red tape between you and a great story.
We just do really good reporting. If that’s your thing, we hope you’ll join us. This position reports to our finance editor, Nate Becker.
We’ll trust you to:
