WSJ seeks metals reporter in London

The Wall Street Journal is looking for a reporter to cover metals markets in London.

The reporter covers gold, silver, copper, aluminum and other hard and shiny things in the world’s great metals-trading center.

Metals are a barometer of the global economy, so the reporter will be chronicling the rising and falling pressures as China goes through massive changes and trade in many commodities moves east.

We need a reporter able to write clear-eyed market comments, to break big markets news and to develop probing features.

To apply, go here.
