Job Description

CNBC is looking for an exceptional business journalist to lead CNBC's flagship morning newsletter and the essential daily read for executives, investors, entrepreneurs and business decision-makers around the world.

This is more than a morning news roundup. Based in London, this journalist will produce an indispensable guide that helps readers start the day smarter, connecting developments across markets, companies, technology, geopolitics and the economy into a cohesive narrative. Every edition should answer the questions business leaders and investors are asking before the opening bell: What's happening? Why does it matter? What's coming next? It will also curate the best of CNBC by highlighting key insights from the network's reporting and previewing the day's most important interviews, analysis and live programming.

The ideal candidate is equal parts reporter, analyst and storyteller. They should possess exceptional news judgment, a deep understanding of global business and financial markets, and a proven ability to synthesize a fast-moving news cycle into compelling, highly readable journalism. They understand how to build a daily reading habit through newsletter writing and know how to develop a distinctive editorial voice that readers trust.

Success in this role requires close collaboration across CNBC's global newsroom. Working with teams in Europe, Asia and the United States, the Morning Business Newsletter Writer will surface the strongest reporting, identify the day's defining themes, and showcase the interviews, analysis and programming audiences can expect across CNBC's television, digital, video and social platforms.
