The role focuses on some of the world’s biggest companies, including Visa and American Express, and how they’re adapting as technology and finance converge.

In addition to breaking news through deep sourcing and data analysis, the successful candidate will contribute to Bloomberg’s magazines, website, TV, and radio. This reporter also will follow the largest U.S. regional lenders, while helping with finance coverage globally.

Qualifications:
The ideal candidate will have at least three years’ experience covering financial or business news, work expertly with words, numbers and people, and thrive in a hyper-competitive, real-time environment in which teamwork and collaboration are a must.
