Reporter, Oil and Energy Markets

The Wall Street Journal seeks a dynamic reporter to cover U.S. financial markets, with a focus on oil and energy markets. This is a high-profile, fast-paced beat at the core of our newsroom. You’ll cover breaking news and be charged with understanding and explaining the complexities of the oil and energy markets to a general audience as well as sophisticated financial readers. While your home base will be in oil and energy, our markets reporters develop expertise across the financial landscape, and you should have the intellectual curiosity to take on stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies or whatever else is in the news. You should be eager to go big, telling stories that start conversations and set agendas for the decision-makers who read the Journal. But the job also requires nuance and attention to detail so we can cut through jargon, make sure we get everything right and boil down even the most complex topics. The position will be based in New York and report to co-editors Aaron Kuriloff and Lauren Pollock.
