About the Role

The Information is seeking a skilled reporter to join its finance team and enhance coverage of the intersection of technology and dealmaking.

  • Appear regularly on The Information’s daily live video show, TITV.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of business, finance, or technology reporting experience.
  • A track record of scoop-driven journalism and source-building on a competitive beat.
  • Strong understanding of capital markets, investment banking, corporate finance, or technology deals.
  • Demonstrated ability to explain complicated financial structures clearly and accurately.
  • Comfort reading offering documents, earnings materials, credit agreements, and other deal-related documents.
  • Ability to build sources across Wall Street and the technology industry, including bankers, investors, lawyers, and executives.
