Barron's Breaking News Reporter

About the Team
Since 1921, Barron's has delivered the need-to-know information for all those seeking to accumulate wealth, and provided a robust understanding of what propels the markets and business community. At the forefront, Barron's is a catalyst for economic change with a powerful network of influential business leaders, financial advisors, institutional and affluent individual investors among its audience.

About the Role
We are seeking a fast, accurate reporter and writer who can offer insights into the biggest stories of the day, which are typically focused on U.S. equities. The reporter should write stories that deliver timely analysis—or an interesting angle—about topics that Barr’s readers are trying to understand. The ideal candidate would have a feel for web traffic and the kinds of stories that resonate online without sinking into clickbait.

The reporter will also be encouraged to write longer, deeply reported features and analytical pieces. Experience writing enterprise articles would be an advantage.

Barr’s values teamwork, and a collaborative approach is required.

You Will

Generate quick angles and strong ideas off the news and meet urgent deadlines.

Familiarity with corporate balance sheets, financial valuations, and investing principles.

Experience writing earnings reports, market commentary, and newsletter posts.

Familiarity with U.S. markets and companies.

You Have

At least one year of experience working as a reporter at a national or trade business news publication.

Collaborative, diplomatic approach and confidence making fast, well-thought-out decisions.

Knowledge of SEO best practices and a knack for writing snappy headlines and ledes.

The role involves an early start, and is office-based at least 3 days a week.

Clean, accurate deadline writer.
