Writer-Editor, Bloomberg Explains & Newsletters

Location: London

Business Area: News and Media

Ref #:

Bloomberg LP has built a significant Media business spanning television, digital, magazine, radio and live event platforms across the globe. In the midst of a historic time in the Media industry, Bloomberg Media is growing its global footprint and reach through new innovations from Originals to New Economy.

We work hard, and we work fast - while keeping up the quality and accuracy we're known for. It's what keeps us inventing and reinventing, all the time. "Our culture is wide open, just like our spaces." We bring out the best in each other. And through our countless volunteer projects, we help bring out the best in the communities around us, too. You can do amazing work here. Work you couldn't do anywhere else. It's up to you to make it happen.

Bloomberg Digital is seeking a writer editor to help grow the subscriber base, in the UK and beyond. The position will prioritize content that resonates with subscribers, primarily by reporting and writing stories that deliver high utility service journalism to readers. This content will help smart professionals understand what matters, untangle what feels confusing and-whenever possible-give them takeaways they can apply to their lives.

The work assumes an informed audience but refuses to leave them stuck in jargon or noise. Bloomberg's explainers bring clarity to how the world works-across markets, politics and corporate power-while our service journalism is specific and actionable, helping readers make better decisions in areas like personal finance and management. The focus is on expert driven guidance that anticipates where costly mistakes and blind spots tend to hide.

You'll also edit Bloomberg UK's flagship daily newsletter, The Readout. It closes the day for UK readers, distilling the developments that shape the country's policy, business and markets-and why they matter-while curating the most consequential reporting from across Bloomberg's global newsroom. You'll work closely with the London newsroom and oversee the newsletter's daily production.

Both parts of the role serve the same goal: attracting and retaining subscribers by delivering journalism that is indispensable. We're looking for someone who can move fluidly between reporting and editing-comfortable picking up the phone to advance a story and equally adept at elevating a writer's copy-and who is driven to help readers move through the world with clarity and confidence.

We'll Trust You To

• Produce service journalism and explainers grounded in reporting and expertise
• Frame coverage around clear questions and actionable answers, highlighting tradeoffs, constraints and hidden risks
• Edit The Readout with sharp news judgment and a strong sense of what matters to UK and global professionals
• Turn news into high utility guides and compelling newsletter moments that deepen engagement
• Maintain a steady publishing rhythm without sacrificing rigor, clarity or style
• Collaborate across beats and platforms - working with reporters, editors, graphics, social and audience teams to maximize reach and subscriber value

You'll Need To Have

• Strong reporting and writing skills, with the ability to handle complexity without oversimplifying
• Editing experience and sharp news judgment, ideally including newsletters
• A deep interest in how systems work - markets, politics, corporations, personal finance - and how individuals navigate them
• Meticulous standards for accuracy, sourcing and verification, especially with numbers and claims
• Range to move between fast turn news and durable, evergreen service journalism
• A strong feel for what a sophisticated, time pressed professional audience needs - and the instinct to deliver it with clarity and authority.
