Description & Requirements

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, 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.


The candidate should have knowledge and understanding of currency, bond and equity markets, ideally with the ability to cultivate contacts and sources at banks, money managers and funds that trade and invest in emerging markets. The role requires covering the local markets and investment climate as part of the broader EM asset class, with a primary focus on markets across Sub-Saharan Africa.


The candidate should have an understanding of the role that foreign creditors, local investors and multilateral lenders such as the IMF play in helping determine the outlook for tradable securities.


Prior experience covering emerging markets is preferred although not necessary.


You'll need to have:



A demonstrated interest in markets

Solid news judgment and a strong sense of urgency

The ability to write quickly, adeptly and concisely under deadline

The ability to cultivate and develop sources in finance, asset management and related fields

The ability to work across teams, platforms and geographies


Life at Bloomberg is many things, but it's never dull. We're a truly global business with a truly diverse workforce. We pride ourselves on being open, inclusive and collaborative, and provide a work environment that inspires our employees to be their best.
