WSJ seeks real estate personal finance writer for Mansion

The Wall Street Journal seeks a writer with voice, authority and style to cover the financial lives of our readers as they navigate home ownership.

The writer’s beat will cover the economics of real estate with a focus on the way we live, finding both real people and experts who can weigh in and speak to these topics. To be published in the Journal’s Mansion section, the writer’s work will need to strike the balance between accessible and high-end.

We want someone who thinks beyond print and sees how ideas and stories can cross platforms in the newsroom, from mobile and video to podcasts and conferences.

The position reports to the Editor of Mansion.

To apply, go here.
