Were looking for a talented, well-organized news hound to be a part of Reuters Bangalore newsroom. The successful candidate will be a people person, a great communicator and, above all, should have a passion for news.
With around 400 journalists, Bangalore is Reuters 3rd largest newsroom. It is at the centre of covering real-time news on companies, commodities, and economics. Bangalore is the seat of Reuters company news headlines team for North America, UK, and the Asia Pacific region.
It is also the global Publishing hub for Reuters - where we curate news stories, pictures, graphics and video for financial readers. Add the fact that we cover stories on the Apple iPhone to Goldman Sachs to Pepsi to Boeing and everything in between, and youve got a bustling 24/5 bureau.

About the Role:

Be fairly comfortable with numbers to be able to cut through the corporate jargon to flesh out a top- notch readable story
Write stories that are accurate, fast (we don t report yesterday s news), and are fair (every story has two sides)

Be able to rewrite headlines, news leads and captions to suit audience requirements
Have a strong interest and expertise in monitoring international news wires and other outlets, including social media

About You:

A journalist will be required to gradually develop an expertise in a sector or an asset class (Company news, commodities news, or economics). Over time, you will be required to write/package unique, analytical and forward-looking pieces for a global audience. And fight boring stories -- every day.
We would prefer that you have: (Qualification & Experience) A degree in Journalism and 2 years of relevant experience
A fair knowledge of corporate activity and stock markets (or at least the ability to gain such knowledge quickly)
The ability to think clearly and write quickly
Good grammar, spelling, and punctuation skills
A level of comfort with handling figures and facts accurately and capability to digest financial data
The willingness and ability to work under tight deadlines and in various shift.
