WSJ has three openings in management bureau

The Wall Street Journal has opportunities with the management bureau in New York:

Deputy Bureau Chief: We are seeking an accomplished journalist to help guide our management coverage. The successful candidate will demonstrate broad experience and a capacity for big ideas, and have the temperament to help manage high-achieving reporters who are often called on to work with other bureaus around the Journal. This deputy would work with the Management bureau chief on editing, scheduling, story assignment and long-range planning of features on all platforms. The editor will be expected to report as well and may take on responsibility for particular coverage areas depending on qualification.​

CEO Specialist: We’re looking for an enterprising reporter to cover senior-level management, from the shifting role of the CEO and top executives to the changes rippling through the consulting firms that advise those leaders. The successful candidate can pitch and produce newsy features and leders that span companies and industries. The reporter must be comfortable with corporate filings and have a keen eye for human stories in big organizations.

B-School Barnstormer: We want a skilled news reporter to cover business schools, executive education and the world of entry-level workers. This reporter will step into the role at a crucial moment of reckoning for business schools, which face steep challenges to their business models. The successful candidate will be expected to break news and produce in-depth features about individual institutions, the market for business education, hiring trends for fresh graduates and corporate panic over millennials.

Interested? Get in touch with management bureau chief Nikki Waller at nikki.waller@wsj.com or business editor Jason Anders at jason.anders@wsj.com.
