Seeking Alpha hires Kiesche as senior editor

Elizabeth Kiesche

SeekingAlpha.com has hired longtime Bloomberg News reporter and editor Elizabeth Kiesche as its senior editor for breaking news.

Kiesche started her new job on Monday.

She left Bloomberg News in June 2017 after spending nearly 14 years on the speed desk. While there, she handled such tasks as sending headlines from press releases, SEC filings, websites and other media that provide actionable information to Bloomberg clients and writing quick fills based off press releases and filings.

Before that, Kiesche was group editor for the industrial team and a line editor, editing stories from the main news queue as well as being primary editor for “Bloomberg Forums” stories that were based on videotaped interviews with corporate executives.

She joined Bloomberg in 1994 to cover the chemical and paper industries after working at Chemical Week.
