Posted May 21, 2024 - Requisition No. 125412
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 and big business, from daily 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 are looking for an editor to join our team covering big business in APAC, with a focus on the consumer and healthcare beats. You will work with our group of reporters spanning Sydney to Mumbai to deliver insightful stories, ranging from fast-paced breaking news to long-gestating investigations. We're particularly interested in a candidate who can elevate our corporate coverage in South and Southeast Asia to resonate with a global audience -- someone who can deftly pivot between topics like the empire-building tycoons in India, the shift in global supply chains to Vietnam and Indonesia, and the rush of regional giants to build Singapore hubs.
We'll trust you to:
Work quickly and accurately under pressure in publishing headlines and breaking news stories
Be able to coach and mentor reporters while bringing your own perspective that adds depth and value
Have intuitive news judgment and the confidence to make calls on coverage
Use data analysis to identify exclusive story ideas
Innovate with story formats while promoting diversity of thought and representation throughout our coverage
Build relationships across the newsroom to ensure our coverage captures the context of local developments while resonating with global audiences
You'll need to have:
At least 5 years of recent experience in journalism
Experience working in a real-time news environment
Experience editing business, consumer and/or health stories
Precision and style in writing and copy-editing
A big-picture outlook especially on the macro environments in South and Southeast Asia
Flexibility, a love of fast-paced working environments, and a resilience to change
Proficiency in spoken and written English
Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organization
Bachelor's degree or equivalent
