Description & Requirements
Bloomberg News is one of the biggest financial and business news organizations in the world. We lead the way in breaking news and providing analysis on financial markets, from intraday coverage through to in-depth features. We are known for our quality, accuracy and ability to deliver news investors can use. It's what keeps us inventing and re-inventing, all the time.
We're looking for an experienced editor to join our dynamic Energy and Commodities team. You will help us with coverage that ranges from agriculture and metal markets to trade wars and M&A. We are eager to find a creative and enthusiastic writer who is equally comfortable in financial markets, geopolitics and the corporate world
The successful candidate will be a team player who can react quickly to a sudden move in oil prices and then pivot to China's nuclear policy or a multi-billion dollar acquisition. You'll have solid news judgement, and the ability to help reporters quickly join the dots.
Based in Australia, you will be handling a lot of our mining coverage, but you will also be working with a large and diverse group that is spread across Asia and across sectors. As a result, we require a proven ability to work across borders, as well as experience coaching young talent. A proactive approach to the job is a must.
We'll trust you to:
* Produce crisp and concise edits that resonate with a wide audience -- from our most sophisticated terminal users to our more casual online readers
* Innovate with story formats while promoting diversity of thought and representation throughout our coverage from the day-to-day coverage to features and enterprise, with opportunities to work on longer-term projects
* Make fast and critical judgement calls to identify the most important stories as well as gaps in coverage
* Collaborate with colleagues across teams, bureaus and continents to break news and give a global perspective to our audience
You'll need to have:
* At least 5 recent years of experience in business journalism as a reporter or editor
* Experience working in a real-time news environment
* Experience collaborating and working with others to accomplish goals
* Outstanding writing skills and the ability to craft concise, clean prose under deadline
* Interest in energy, commodities and climate coverage
* Proficiency in both spoken and written English
* Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organization
Life at Bloomberg is many things, but it's never dull. We're a truly global business with a truly diverse workforce. We pride ourselves on being open, inclusive and collaborative, and provide a work environment that inspires our employees to be their best.
