Senior Correspondent - Reuters, The Insurer

This position will be based in London with hybrid working available.

Are you an experienced journalist looking for a new challenge? Like the sound of covering a fast-moving and varied beat within the financial services sector? Want to play a key role in the Reuters London newsroom? If so, this might be the job for you.

The Insurer, a market-leading specialty (re)insurance news, analysis and data service published by Reuters, is looking for a Senior Correspondent to join its team in London. Working within the Reuters newsroom, you’ll break exclusive news for The Insurer’s readers as well as the Reuters global audience of financial professionals.

The Insurer’s scope is global, but its main focus is on the underwriting and distribution of complex risk, and the capital, infrastructure and services supporting it. In a fast-changing risk environment shaped by factors from climate change to cyber threats, insurance and reinsurance play a critical role in enabling almost every area of the global economy. The Insurer gives highly engaged readers business-critical intelligence and information to help them navigate an evolving landscape. As a Senior Correspondent, you'll play a key role in our growing London team. You'll collaborate with other journalists across Reuters and your reporting will be part of the feed to customers of LSEG’s financial terminals.

About The Role

As Senior Correspondent at The Insurer, you will:

• Break exclusives: Generate valuable news content by developing reliable sources and collaborating closely with colleagues.
• Develop deep contacts: The specialty (re)insurance business is a people business, and sources generate exclusive leads.
• Present compelling story ideas with a clear plan to deliver.
• Collaborate on major news stories: Work effectively with other journalists to cover significant events and developments.
• Explain complex concepts: Simplify and clearly communicate often intricate subjects.

• Demonstrable experience covering the financial services sector in a newsroom, with a hunger for news and for delivering a range of content.
• Good communication skills – you will regularly be engaging with C-suite executives and will be expected to build a network of sources.
• A proven appetite for digging beneath the surface – the quality of our coverage depends on looking behind the headline and seeking trends.
• Strong skills in developing original stories and pitching ideas effectively.
• Collaborating effectively with colleagues as a personable team member.
• Utilizing multimedia: Experience in using multimedia to enhance reporting is preferred.
• Leveraging AI: Interest in using AI tools to enhance reporting and newsroom efficiency is a must.
