WSJ seeks municipal bonds reporter

The Wall Street Journal seeks an enterprising reporter to cover debt markets and bond trading, with special focus on municipal finance, for all platforms from real-time to print.

The reporter will cover the intersection of public finance and Wall Street, exploring angles from deals and deal makers to investors large and small to defaults and bankruptcies. We are looking for productive reporter who is a proven news breaker and who also can identify and tell stories of the bigger trends and connections between Wall Street and main street.

The ideal candidate will have at least three years of experience at a major daily publication and a strong grasp of finance. Please include your resume and clips with your online application.

Applications should include a resume, cover letter, and up to five published clips.
