Breaking News Editor

New Posted 7 August 2023 | Tokyo, Japan | Bloomberg

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.

You're always the first to know the biggest stories in Japan and around the world, and find yourself glued to minute-by-minute updates as they happen. You embrace challenges, can make split-second decisions, thrive in a fast-paced environment and work well with others. Our team, as first responders to news both expected and not, is lightning fast, innovative and uses our collective experience to anticipate where and how news will break next. If all that sound exciting to you, we want you in our team.

The Breaking News team is looking for a bilingual editor to join our Tokyo bureau. You will work alongside a group of experienced editors to own the first moments of coverage when news breaks, by sending concise headlines and quick snippets of news. You will dabble in a broad range of topics, from earthquakes to government announcements, to market reports and general news. When Abe fell, the team was the first in the newsroom to react. More regularly, you will be monitoring for and distilling information in real-time into headlines that traders can use. The delay of a second can spell the difference between huge financial gains, or big losses.
