It also is essential to coordinating coverage with an adjacent product, Risk & Compliance Journal.

The ideal candidate will be adept at balancing short-term coverage plans and breaking news with features and longer-term assignments. The editor must be able to shepherd articles that are sophisticated enough to appeal to finance chiefs, yet clear enough to be understood by other professionals with a keen interest in finance.
