Wall Street Journal seeks commodities regulatory reporter

The Wall Street Journal seeks an aggressive reporter to cover regulatory and enforcement actions in commodities trading.

The reporter will be responsible for ferreting out bad behavior in commodities markets and gaining an inside track on government investigations into everything from oil to silver to cotton.

The ideal candidate will have a track record of developing high-level sources and delivering juicy scoops. These skills are essential in the murky world of commodities, where the line between market manipulation and legal trading practices is fuzzy, and many markets are only just beginning to come under scrutiny from regulators. A background in commodities or market regulation is a plus, though not required.
