Anthony DeRosa has been hired by Pensions & Investments in the newly created role of digital content director.
He will start Dec. 19 in New York.
DeRosa was most recently audience editor for The Wall Street Journal’s U.S. news coverage.
“Anthony is the dream multimedia business and finance journalist,” said Jennifer Ablan, editor in chief and chief content editor at Pensions & Investments, in a statement. “Anthony is a trailblazer in our industry, and he loves to look for new ways to innovate and experiment with various forms of storytelling. I’m excited to have him as a huge part of our newsroom transformation.”

Before that, DeRosa was editor in chief of the news app Circa, which broke new ground on news summarization and led the way in mobile-first news thinking.
