DJ FX Trader looking for ME in London

Jim Pinsiero, deputy managing editor of The Wall Street Journal, sent out the following e-mail on Wednesday:

DJ FX Trader, a joint venture of Dow Jones Newswires and The Wall Street Journal, is seeking a managing editor to lead our forex, fixed income and macroeconomics coverage in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.  The job is based in London.

The successful candidate will manage a core team of editors and reporters, while working closely with other DJN and WSJ journalists across the region to drive coverage that moves the needle for this essential market.

Experience managing reporters and editors that break news is essential.  DJ FX Trader requires agenda-setting  news coverage for our demanding audience of traders and market professionals. While exclusive real-time news is the service’s top priority, the successful candidate must be able to lead coverage of complex and evolving topics such as the eurozone debt crisis for all of our platforms: real-time, web, mobile and print. It is a challenging assignment, and for the right person it will be both  exhilarating and rewarding.

Interested? Apply to Gabriella Stern, Jim Pensiero or Gren Manuel.
