The posting

The Role:

Debtwire, a leading provider of global fixed income news, analysis and data for more than two decades, is looking for a senior reporter/editor with a track record of breaking news in leveraged finance to spearhead our coverage in North America.

Working on the news desk in New York with sweeping views of Central Park, the candidate will be expected to generate scoops on developments in the primary market for leveraged loans and high yield bonds along with private credit.

You will chronicle the push and pull between syndicated and private credit as borrowers and financial sponsors look to secure the best terms for financing, particularly for AI data centers, leveraged buyouts and refinancing maturing debt.

Debtwire journalists are expected to use their own initiative to uncover leads from market sources at asset managers, law firms, banks and beyond, but also collaborate extensively with fellow reporters and analysts across Debtwire, Mergermarket and Infralogic globally to break news in a highly competitive space.

Experience covering debt markets is a requirement. Private credit and/or M&A experience is a plus. Prior team leadership experience or aspirations to become an editor is a plus but note that this is a player-coach role. The position offers the opportunity for travel and moderating at conferences.

Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Drive to break news and deliver actionable intelligence on leveraged finance.
  • An investigative mindset and good writing/editing skills.
  • An understanding of fixed income markets, a strong grasp of and an interest in the broader financial and legal markets.
  • Outstanding networking and contact building skills.
  • Excellent time management and communication ability.
  • A self-starter attitude with a cooperative approach.

Required Skills, Experience, and Qualifications:

  • Previous experience covering fixed-income markets
  • Strong writing skills and investigative mindset
  • Time management and communication skills
  • Networking and contact-building skills

Salary Range and benefits:

The estimated salary range is $160,000 - $200,000. Salary is negotiable depending on experience and skills.

Our total rewards program is designed to support employee well-being and professional growth. We offer a competitive benefits package including a discretionary bonus, paid holidays, a 401(k), and comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage. Additional benefits include life insurance, short and long-term disability, Commuter FSA, Family Building Benefits, and more. All benefits are subject to eligibility requirements.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
