Distressed Debt Reporter - 3-6 month Internship
9fin, New York, NY, United States
About 9fin
9fin is the AI platform powering global debt markets — the world’s largest asset class at over $145 trillion.
Debt markets are vast, global, and mission-critical, yet still run on fragmented data, PDFs, and manual workflows. 9fin replaces this broken infrastructure with a single platform that centralises proprietary credit data, deep analysis, and high-value workflows across global markets.
Today, 9fin powers teams at 300+ blue‑chip institutions worldwide, including global banks, asset managers, private equity firms, law firms, and advisors. The business is scaling at exceptional speed, with rapid expansion in the US and best‑in‑class retention driven by deep workflow adoption.
We’re at a defining inflection point. With proven product‑market fit and strong, global market pull, 9fin is accelerating toward becoming the category‑defining platform for debt markets worldwide.
What you'll work on Every day is different, but here's an example of the kind of things you'll work on:
Cover active distressed credit situations and bankruptcy cases across the US leveraged finance market, producing timely and well‑sourced news and analysis for 9fin's platform
Build and maintain a source network among restructuring lawyers, advisors, buyside investors, and other market participants
Write breaking news, analytical pieces, and longer‑form features on liability management transactions, Chapter 11 filings, and out‑of‑court restructurings
Collaborate with analysts and legal staff to produce data‑driven content tracking capital structures, recovery scenarios, and market trends in distressed credit
Contribute to 9fin's Default Notice newsletter and other recurring editorial products
Develop expertise in a specific sector or issuer coverage area within the distressed universe over the course of the programme
About you This role will be a great fit if you:
Have some prior experience in financial journalism, leveraged finance, restructuring, or a related field — this is an entry‑level programme designed to develop talent
Are a natural storyteller with strong written communication skills and the ability to explain complex financial situations clearly
Are curious, persistent, and comfortable approaching sources and building relationships in a competitive information environment
Have an interest in — or ideally some familiarity with — distressed credit, bankruptcy law, or leveraged finance
Are based in New York and able to work in a hybrid environment
Compensation:
$30/hr
9fin is an equal opportunities employer
At 9fin we are dedicated to building and promoting a fair and inclusive workplace where everyone can reach their full potential and truly belong. We recognize that building diverse teams enables a more creative and productive environment. If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t perfectly align with the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might just be who we’re looking for — either for this role, or perhaps another.
