We believe in the power of unique perspectives and want all voices in our organisation to be heard, respected and valued. A supportive workplace is one where employees feel they can be themselves and operate to their full potential. We are committed to removing barriers for everyone, with a focus on addressing those faced by underrepresented groups.
FT Specialist is seeking a Data Reporter / Senior Data Reporter to join our growing data journalism team, producing exclusive, data-driven reporting and visual storytelling for FundFire and Financial Advisor IQ.
This role sits at the intersection of journalism, data analysis and visual design. You will be responsible for sourcing, cleaning, analysing and interpreting complex datasets to uncover original stories covering institutional investments, wealth management and the financial advisory industry. You will also create engaging visualisations and interactive content that help our journalism stand out and deliver insights readers cannot find elsewhere.
Working as part of a six-person data visualisation team, you will collaborate closely with reporters and editors across both publications while reporting to the Managing Editor of Data Visualization. The successful candidate will be equally comfortable developing ambitious long-term investigative and analytical projects as well as delivering shorter-turnaround stories that respond to emerging industry trends and news events.
We are looking for a curious, collaborative and entrepreneurial journalist who is passionate about using data to reveal meaningful stories and who is committed to continually developing their skills in a fast-evolving newsroom environment.
Our benefits vary by location but we are committed to providing best-in-class perks across all our offices. These include generous annual leave, medical cover, inclusive parental leave packages, subsidised gym memberships and opportunities to give back to the community. Full details of our benefits are available here: https://aboutus.ft.com/careers/benefits.
We’ve embraced a 50% hybrid working model (averaging two to three days onsite) that fosters trust and remote adaptability while encouraging in-person camaraderie and peer learning. Additionally, we are open to accommodating specific flexible working pattern requests for all roles where feasible.
We are committed to creating an inclusive and accessible recruitment process.
Please let us know if you require any reasonable adjustments or accommodations during the application process or interview stage. If you would like to discuss your requirements, please contact talent@ft.com and a member of our team will be happy to help.
A reasonable estimate of the salary range for this role is $75,000-$95,000. The upper end of the scale reflects pay of someone who comes in at the senior reporter level, with confirmed experience and strong work to show. Earlier career candidates will be considered for reporter-level roles. To ensure pay fairness, the successful candidate will be offered a salary within the estimated salary range based on a number of considerations including but not limited to: skills; experience and training; certifications; and other business and organisational needs. The disclosed range estimate is for our NYC office and has not been adjusted for other locations.
