WSJ seeks editor for investing team

The Wall Street Journal is seeking an energetic editor to lead Money & Investing’s investing team.

The Journal’s investing editor spearheads some of M&I core areas of coverage, from hedge funds and stock exchanges to insurance companies and public pensions. This is an exciting time to cover these beats, and to join M&I.

The right candidate must demonstrate keen news judgment, as well as the ability to handle real-time deadlines and, when major stories emerge, marshal our reporting teams to produce the best and most comprehensive coverage in the financial-news business.

Finally, he or she must possess a deft and careful editing touch on features, investigative pieces and other long-form stories worthy of The Journal’s Page One.

The job is based in New York.
