Senior Distressed Reporter

About 9finThe world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data. Technology has revolutionized equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it’s in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered. Our mission is to change this. 9fin's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal & ESG analysis. Our clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business and most importantly, save time. Our fast growing list of clients include 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds and Law Firms.What you’ll work onEvery day is different, but here’s an example of the kind of things you’ll work on:Breaking news — You’ll regularly break stories on what’s going on in distressed debt, from deteriorating company earnings all the way through to messy out-of-court restructuringsFeature-writing — You’ll know when to pull the trigger on longer-form articles that connect the dots between daily news and broader market trendsGenerating ideas — You’ll provide a consistent stream of new ideas, whether that’s identifying new situations to cover, or thinking up new ways to cover themMonitoring markets — You’ll learn to harness our technology to identify new opportunities, ensuring that 9fin’s coverage of the distressed market is timely and comprehensiveAbout YouThis role will be a great fit if you:Experienced — 3+ years reporting on distressed debt marketsPersonable — Inquisitive and outgoing, always making new connections and sharing ideasOrganized — Able to maintain a deep network of sources, stay on top of story pipeline and deadlinesCommunicative — Clear and concise in your written and verbal language, and able to explain complex ideas in simple termsJudicious — Committed to providing detailed and accurate information, and able to strike the right balance between urgency and perfectionDriven — Endlessly curious, self-motivated, and passionate about doing a good jobOur benefitsWe’re a scaling start up and we enjoy sharing our success, when the company succeeds, we always reinvest that in our people.
