Private Equity Reporter

The Information was founded in late 2013 with a simple idea: write deeply reported articles about the technology industry that you won't find elsewhere. Since then, we've become a disruptor in business news that’s moved markets, gotten the early scoop on billions of dollars of acquisitions, and told you what's happening inside companies like Apple, Meta and Google. As a subscription-only publication, we aim high and take on challenging stories and adhere to the highest of journalistic standards. What we put into the work is just as in-depth as our output. We've attracted tens of thousands of paying subscribers who look to us for breaking news stories and impactful features. As we look to expand our coverage in alignment with the needs of our subscribers, we continue to invest aggressively in our team. Wall Street and Silicon Valley have never been more tightly intertwined, and their relationship has never been more important. The Information is building a Finance section that will give its readers a commanding and authoritative mix of scoops and insight that spans both coasts, fueled by inside information from the most important players in finance. We are looking for someone who is excited about helping build an all-star team that will deliver big scoops and offer best-in-class insight and analysis. The possibilities for this team are endless, and we’re just getting started. We’re seeking a reporter to dive deep into the world of private equity, where firms are modernizing and leaning into tech. Blackstone, the juggernaut of the PE world, has shifted more of its business toward growth. Francisco Partners just finished raising nearly $17 billion to invest in tech companies. Just a few months ago, Thoma Bravo shelled out $10.7 billion to buy software firm Anaplan. Tens of billions of dollars of dry powder sit in firms’ growth funds, waiting to fuel dynamic stories and big scoops. Join us and let’s tell readers together.
