About Data Visualization Editor - Hong Kong

  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 News is seeking a Data Visualization Editor to guide team members in covering news as it unfolds, visualizing data-driven insights through charts, maps and other forms. We value editors who can identify graphics and visual narratives that help readers understand events as they evolve, collaborate with newsroom colleagues to ensure our team's contributions to newsroom coverage are coordinated and timely, and inspire data visualization reporters to create clear and informative graphics.

  You should be passionate about telling stories of significance to readers in Asia and the Pacific - as well as a global audience. In addition to colleagues in the Hong Kong and Singapore news bureaus, you'll have opportunities to collaborate with Bloomberg News Data Visualization colleagues in Taipei, London, New York, Washington D.C. and San Francisco.

  Relying on your sound news judgment and refined design sensibilities, you'll edit data-driven graphics and visual storytelling driven by news coverage. You'll coordinate with editors on the Data Visualization team and across the newsroom to understand coverage priorities as news events unfold. You'll assign stories - and inspire reporters to generate ideas for graphics and visual narratives - that push our coverage forward, and you'll deliver clear, actionable feedback as you edit. We value editors who lead by example and pitch in to ensure we publish on deadline.

  Prior editing experience is preferred, but not required. Candidates eager to transition to an editing role who can show an extensive background creating news-driven maps, charts and other data visualizations, and leading collaborative projects, are encouraged to apply.

  We'll trust you to:

  Guide reporters to create compelling maps, charts, explanatory diagrams and other graphics in response to news events, both planned and unplanned Help reporters follow news as it develops, identifying potential data and visual opportunities for stories that push our coverage forward Assign, shape and edit graphics and narrative data visualizations to publication Deliver feedback on how to communicate effectively through graphics Work efficiently under tight deadlines Coordinate with newsroom leaders in the region to understand coverage priorities Possess interest in topics core to Bloomberg News coverage - including finance, markets, economics and government policy, among others - and an eagerness to develop subject-matter expertise in these areas

  You'll need to have:

  At least 3 years of professional experience in a role that produces data visualizations for publication Experience conceptualizing and structuring visual narratives and writing copy Strong communications skills and project management experience in coordinating across multiple teams Strong sense of visual design with solid understanding of layout, typography and user experience and familiarity with design software such as Adobe Creative Cloud Experience evaluating data sources and assessing data reporting Familiarity with front-end web development using modern HTML, CSS and JavaScript and rendering graphics in the browser Proficiency in both spoken and written English Demonstrated continuous career growth within an organisation

  You'll have the support of other editors and journalists across our highly-collaborative global graphics team, but your ability to jump into projects and apply these skills will help the team take ownership of critical stories in the region.

  If you think you'd be a good fit to join us, submit an application and include a resume, a brief letter telling us about yourself and a portfolio that demonstrates an understanding of data journalism, design and visual storytelling. Include a link to your Github account if you have one.

  Life at Bloomberg is many things, but it's never dull. We are 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.
