CNBC.com hires enterprise reporter

CNBC.com vice president and executive editor Xana Antunes sent out the following staff hire on Thursday:

I wanted to let you know that Dan Mangan will be joining Jeff Nash’s team as Enterprise Reporter. He will come aboard on Monday, May 20.

Dan is the definition of a real-time reporter, helming the New York Post’s rewrite desk to coordinate dispatches from reporters in multiple locations while manning the phones to do his own reporting and banging out the pitch perfect lead of the day. From front page exclusives (including A-Rod cheating with a stripper) to impressive exposes (one of which prompted a multi-million settlement with the Justice Department), Dan has risen to each new journalistic challenge and proved his formidable reporting chops.

He offered up extensive coverage of 9/11, the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme and Martha Stewart criminal case to name but a few. Now Dan’s trading in his coverage of sex, scandal and crime to join CNBC Digital and turn his enterprise reporting mojo on the business world, specifically sex, scandal and crime … no wait, health care (among other topics).

Prior to his nearly 13-year run at the Post, Dan worked at the Stamford Advocate and the Fairfield County Business Journal. He lives in Washington Heights and is looking forward to biking to work! (Not to be shown up, Upper West Sider Tom Lowry is also threatening to dust off his bicycle.)

Dan will be a fine addition to Jeff’s growing Enterprise team and our digital operations. Please offer him a warm welcome.
