Posted Jul 9, 2024 - Requisition No. 126366

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.

We are looking for an asset allocation reporter based in Hong Kong to cover the biggest investors in the Asian private markets -- also known as limited partners -- from pensions and insurance companies to endowments and outsourced CIOs.

You will work with other experienced reporters and editors across teams and bureaus on fast breaking stories and ambitious enterprise projects that bring sophisticated tales to life for our discerning readers. From global investors' asset and resource allocation in a dynamic Asia environment, to the winners and losers among the region's biggest sovereign wealth funds, you will be working on the core stories that draw readers to Bloomberg.

We are seeking someone with sharp and confident news judgment as well as an expansive sourcing network to deliver the best exclusives in a high-paced news environment. You will be collaborating with colleagues who are already covering some of the regional sovereign wealth funds and pensions to generate broad enterprise ideas. We'll also expect you to leverage Bloomberg's global newsroom and multiple platforms -- including video, audio and social media -- to amplify our most impressive work across many formats.

We'll trust you to:

• Break news on how global investors are deploying money in Asia, stay on top of funds they are investing in and keep track - of money flows in and out of the region

• Make fast and critical judgement calls to identify the most important stories in coverage

• Produce stories that resonate with a diverse audience -- from our most sophisticated terminal users to our diverse base of online readers.

• Be comfortable working with reporters and editors across the newsroom

• Maintain a culture of innovation, and develop new ways to gain the reader’s imagination

• Promote diversity of thought and representation throughout our coverage

You'll need to have:

• At least 3 years of financial reporting experience

• A track record of breaking scoops and strong financial knowledge

• Strong writing skills and the ability to produce both this-just-in stories and enterprise

• Sound news judgement and a talent for looking beyond the obvious story

• Ability to excel in a fast-paced global environment and meet deadlines

• Fluency in both spoken and written English

• Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organization
