Metals Reporter - Singapore

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 intraday 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 experienced, enterprising reporter to cover Asian metals markets and producers from Singapore, with a focus on Southeast Asia. You will be at the heart of one of the world's most dynamic regions for metals, covering major miners and traders as well as some of the fastest-growing centers of commodity demand.

Working closely with colleagues across the newsroom, you will draw on a deep understanding of the metals industry to develop authoritative sources and contacts. We are looking for someone who can turn those connections into breaking news, distinctive interviews and ambitious enterprise that helps illuminate an often opaque sector.

Though this role sits within the Asia Metals team, the successful candidate will be part of a wider commodities group, and will ensure that our mining and markets coverage connects with everything from battery technology to changing trends in artificial intelligence.

We'll trust you to:

Break news in English on companies, markets and broader trends

Get right to the heart of the biggest stories to interpret wider industrial and economical impact

Generate quick analysis on fast-paced developments, as well as long-form stories with in-depth insights

Work seamlessly and proactively with teams across regions and departments

You'll need to have:

A minimum of 5 years of recent experience in financial journalism

Experience working at a real-time news service

Experience covering metals' markets or commodities

Willingness to collaborate

Excellent news judgement and an ability to collaborate across teams and platforms

Proven ability to build sources
