The successful candidate will have strong news judgment, understand digital consumption habits as well as coverage areas that matter to a business and finance audience. You will need to have a record of collaborating with reporters and editors across a global newsroom.
We\'re looking for a self-starter with a passion for breaking news, as well as presenting longer-form pieces in clear and creative ways. You should be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment that often requires making split-second decisions, and be willing to pitch in across roles.

We\'ll trust you to:
  • Manage homepages to highlight the biggest news of the day globally
  • Curate content to show off our best stories in all formats, including newsletters, podcasts and videos
  • Develop coverage plans for breaking news and live events in collaboration with the News Desk
  • Write and brainstorm web-friendly headlines with the newsroom
  • Optimize content for SEO and monitor keyword opportunities
  • Send mobile push alerts across regions as news breaks
  • Promote priority content across social distribution platforms
  • Pitch referral partners for promotion (Apple News, LinkedIn, etc.)
You\'ll need to have:
  • A minimum of 5+ years of experience covering business journalism, financial markets or global news, preferably in a digital newsroom environment
  • Excellent news judgment and attention to detail
  • Strong headline writing skills for the homepage and across social platforms
  • Deliver your best work under pressure in a fast-paced newsroom, balancing multiple projects at a time
  • An ability to adapt to changing news habits and audience behavior in a post-social media world
  • A collaborative spirit and a commitment to innovate and experiment
  • Prior experience with web and social publishing tools, Photoshop and Google Search Console are a plus

Apply if you think we\'re a good match. We\'ll get in touch to let you know that the next steps are, but in the meantime feel free to have a look at:
