Location: Arlington
Posted on: June 22, 2022

Job Description:

Full time

You are an industry-recognized journalist who will bring an investigative mindset to business and legal matters and produce stories with impact. You will write hard-hitting stories that affect change and break down complex issues clearly, accurately, and in a way that makes readers take notice.

What You Will Do

• Lead by example, using your industry standing to guide your colleagues across the Bloomberg Industry Group newsroom, partnering on big stories to elevate their work and yours.
• Using newsroom objectives, independently identify which investigative stories deserve attention - and which do not. Spot regulations, policy decisions, legal developments, and daily stories that need more scrutiny and then research and report to produce stories that sound the alarm, changing laws and affecting policy.
• Write with clarity and authority, engaging readers with your compelling storytelling.
• Work with our graphics, podcast, and video teams to tell stories in the medium that works best.
• Provide solutions to problems in situations that are atypical based on existing precedents or procedures.
• Meticulously report and fact-check your work.
• Write clearly and concisely on a range of complex issues, always with an eye toward grabbing readers attention.
• Provide informal guidance and support to team members and journalists across the newsroom.
  You Need To Have
  
  • A track record of producing clearly written stories on complex issues that have led to change in the law and policy.
  • An award-winning standing in the industry built on excellent sourcing, a proven ability to obtain documents and data through FOIA requests, and a working knowledge of data tools.
  • At least 10 years' worth of experience as a journalist.
  • A Bachelor's degree.
