WSJ seeks M&A editor in New York

The Wall Street Journal is looking for an editor to lead its deals team.

The editor is expected to play a leading role in guiding and driving deals coverage, from breaking news to enterprise features. The editor will also have the opportunity to report out his or her own stories; candidates should excel in both roles and be able to juggle them as needed.

Qualifications: We are looking for a seasoned editor or a reporter with the experience and disposition to move to an editing position. The person should be a team player who is eager to work collaboratively with WSJ colleagues world-wide on stories. Good judgment is a must. We are seeking a background in financial or corporate reporting or editing.

Applications should include a resume and cover letter.
