WSJ seeks a senior finance reporter

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a senior reporter to write about the large investors, the powerful firms and the vast pools of money that drive global finance.

You will have wide reach across asset management, debt and equity capital markets, the world of private capital, and beyond. You must have a deep understanding of this terrain and established contacts and sources within it.

We’re looking for a versatile reporter – someone who hungers to break the biggest stories and is adept at large-scale pieces. We value clear and elegant writing, and the ability to tell a good story.

You should be comfortable with global financial issues and have a working knowledge of the tech world and the way it intersects with Wall Street. Financial literacy and a familiarity with global markets are essential.

We’re looking for someone who has seven or more years experience covering finance or markets. While the job will start remotely, it is based in New York.
