WSJ seeks financial enterprise reporter

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a reporter to focus on enterprise stories in the global world of finance, including breaking news and investigative projects.

The reporter will work with others on the enterprise team, as well as beat reporters across the newsroom, to tell powerful, hard-hitting stories that make news, with an emphasis on finance, Wall Street and the significant investors deploying capital and moving money.

The reporter should be comfortable working with data and quick to develop sources that open up the best-held secrets to the financial world. This is a broad job with a wide ambit, and the reporter will have to be comfortable dealing with a swath of people including hedge-fund managers, federal investigators and financial hackers.

Knowledge of the banking and financial systems is preferred, and previous experience on a finance beat is required.

To apply, go here.
