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 News is looking for a reporter to cover weather and the changing climate.The weather has never mattered more to markets, economies and governments as a warmer world brings hotter summers, stronger storms and more erratic rainfall.

As we expand our coverage, there will be opportunities to work on video and audio projects as well as a new newsletter product.We\'ll trust you to:

• Build out weather coverage in the region, from extreme events to scientific discoveries
• Report with speed and accuracy
• Balance daily news with easily accessible explanatory pieces and creative long-form stories
• Work seamlessly and proactively with teams across other regions and departments
• Be innovative and creative in writing and formatting stories
