Private Credit Editor

Los Angeles, CA

Posted Mar 22, 2024 - Requisition No. 124047

Bloomberg News is looking for an ambitious editor to help spearhead its coverage of private markets -- from the new titans of finance in the $1.7 trillion private-credit industry to the buyout kings looking for ways to cash out their bets and investment bankers who are driving the deals.

You will helm major breaking news, working with colleagues across the globe on some of our most high-profile stories across credit and finance, including the push by Wall Street banks to claw back business from direct lenders, and a rising tide of distressed debt as high interest rates weigh on troubled companies.

When not on deadline, you'll be cultivating story ideas with reporters and driving impactful enterprise that reveals the most important trends in these opaque corners of the market.

WE’LL TRUST YOU TO:

Motivate reporters to stretch themselves to break ever bigger scoops and produce stories that hold companies to account, challenge perceptions and effect change

Work with reporters to deliver compelling, accurate and expertly edited narratives that resonate with terminal, magazine and web readers

Maintain a culture of urgency, innovation and strong news judgement

Build influential relationships across the newsroom to get things done and ensure our coverage is packaged well across platforms

Demonstrate level-headedness and decisive leadership in a fast-paced, dynamic news environment

Promote diversity of thought and representation throughout our coverage

YOU'LL NEED TO HAVE:

Outstanding news judgement and strong editing skills

A record of mentoring, coaching and advocating for reporters and their work

A record of motivating reporters to break big scoops, developing and editing deeply reported narratives

A demonstrated ability to break down silos and communicate across teams, groups, platforms and regions

A strong work ethic and solid organizational skills

A solid understanding of the tech industry is a plus
