WSJ/Dow Jones looking for reporter in Spain

Rebecca Blumenstein, who oversees international coverage for The Wall Street Journal, sent out the following announcement on Friday:

We’re looking for a versatile, experienced reporter to cover economic policy, politics and corporate news from Spain and Portugal for The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires.

Based in our Madrid bureau, the successful candidate will have at least five years of journalism experience. He or she will be expected to produce a full range of business, economic and political stories for Dow Jones’ various publications and content platforms — ranging from real-time news reporting to in-depth features and analysis on the Spanish economy, markets and political scene that would regularly appear in the WSJ. The ideal candidate will be able to break currency news and deliver stories from bull-fighting to the impact of the unfolding financial crisis.

The candidate must be a team player, willing and able to coordinate real-time coverage with colleagues from Dow Jones’ English and Spanish -language services, and serve the needs of editors seeking both scoops and deeply-reported stories. Complete fluency in English and Spanish is required, and knowledge of Portuguese would be an advantage.

If you are interested, please contact Madrid bureau chief Santiago Perez and myself.
