Private Debt Investor is seeking an ambitious, news-driven journalist to join our New York office.
If you are a news-hungry and career-focused journalist focused on finance or investment and with the ability to build your personal brand and a talent for cultivating high-level sources, then do get in touch.
Private Debt Investor was the first global publication to cover alternative lenders and three years on we have a strong brand and fast-growing readership. We’ve developed relationships with and reported on the largest private credit managers in the world while breaking news and delving into the issues emerging in the world of ‘shadow banking’.
Based in New York, this opening is a rare opportunity for an ambitious individual seeking to advance their career in one of the fastest growing areas of global finance.
REQUIREMENTS:
The successful candidate will have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent and journalism or related writing/reporting experience. Applicants with a debt reporting background and a well-established contact book are particularly encouraged to apply.
A demonstrable interest in and understanding of business, finance and investment is essential, as is the ability to work both independently and as part of a global team.
Resilience under pressure – remaining focused in the face of competing priorities to ensure deadlines are met – is key. The individual should also be a gifted networker, who is willing and able to travel and attend industry-related events.
You will be dedicated to Private Debt Investor (www.privatedebtinvestor.com) – an online news and intelligence platform and monthly print magazine providing information to institutional investors, fund managers and advisors.
BENEFITS:
We are part of PEI Media (www.thisispei.com), a financial information group focused exclusively on alternative asset finance and investment, with offices in London, New York and Hong Kong.
PEI Media specialises in covering the private equity, private debt, real estate and infrastructure industries globally and are increasingly active in other, newly emerging alternative investment fields and practices too. PEI also runs a highly successful international conference programme comprising nearly 60 events each year.
People who thrive at PEI are smart, ambitious and committed. The successful applicant will understand the value of teamwork yet desire to make a personal impact and will be passionate and energetic about what they do. In additional to an excellent salary and benefits package, we can provide an exciting career opportunity where personal growth and advancement is aligned to the rapid development of an award-winning company.
