You'll need to have:
 

• A minimum of 5+ years of experience covering business journalism, financial markets or global news, preferably in a digital newsroom environment
• Excellent news judgment and attention to detail
• Strong headline writing skills for the homepage and across social platforms
• Deliver your best work under pressure in a fast-paced newsroom, balancing multiple projects at a time
• An ability to adapt to changing news habits and audience behavior in a post-social media world
