Southeast Asia Tech Reporter

Singapore, Singapore

Job Description


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 daily 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.

Bloomberg\'s Global Technology group is seeking an aggressive, creative reporter to help cover Southeast Asia\'s technology industry and the region\'s growing role in a widening US-Chinese technology and geopolitical conflict. This person will be part of a team based in Singapore that will follow increasing US and Chinese investments in startups, high-end tech manufacturing from semiconductors to iPhones, and in social media and content. You\'ll work with the global tech, media and telecommunications teams and collaborate with the bureaus around the world to tell broader stories of how technology and capital is transforming the region\'s economy, society and culture.

You\'re an agile reporter who\'s familiar with the rise of China as a global economy and political power as well as broader conflict with the US in technology, trade and investment policy. You\'re able to write quickly and crisply on the most pressing tech issues of the day. You\'re the type of person who has a knack for quickly coming up with original ideas and thoughtful analysis on the biggest tech stories -- a cogent rundown of the latest developments in the business of technology, not just in the startup space but also the release of a new gadget, a bankruptcy, a management overhaul or a funding round that elevates an unknown startup into overnight unicorn status. You have an eye for the stories no one else is telling on an intensely covered beat, and versatile enough to write for a variety of platforms, including the Web, Bloomberg terminal and Bloomberg Businessweek magazine.

We\'ll trust you to:

  • Break news and uncover exclusive information on your beat
  • Tell feature-length stories about the companies and values of Asian technology
  • Work with other reporters on the technology team and beyond to expand our impact
  • Be committed to the best journalistic practices, sound judgment and a willingness to learn
You\'ll need to have:
  • At least 8 years of business or financial journalism experience
  • Atleast 3 years of experience working in a real-time news environment
  • Recent work experience covering technology in China or the US as a reporter
  • Fluency in both spoken and written English & Mandarin to support China coverage
  • Bachelor\'s Degree or degree equivalent qualifications
  • An interest in Asia, technology and how the country is evolving
  • Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organization
Life at Bloomberg is many things, but it\'s never dull. We\'re a truly global business with a truly diverse workforce. We pride ourselves on being open, inclusive and collaborative, and provide a work environment that inspires our employees to be their best. We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive healthcare coverage, and programs to support you and your family through different life stages, from parental leave to generous retirement savings plans.

Apply if you think we\'re a good match. We\'ll get in touch to let you know what the next steps are, but in the meantime feel free to have a look at this: https://www.bloomberg.com/professional
