Head of Private Credit - Debtwire

ION

London

The Role
Debtwire, an ION Analytics company and the leading provider of news and analysis for the global fixed income markets, is seeking a reporter to cover the European private credit market. Debtwire provides sophisticated investors and advisors with deep-dive coverage of public and private companies, with an emphasis on high-yield bonds, leveraged loans and private credit, from new issuance through stress, distress and restructuring.
The Reporter role is focused on breaking news on companies in need of private credit for M&A, refinancing and organic growth. This is not a loan pricing position — you will write in depth stories on investor sentiment about new issuance and broader market trends. The reporter will be part of team of journalists and credit and legal analysts based in London and around our global offices.
Key Responsibilities
Reporting, writing, and filing copy on a daily basis
Writing in-depth, substantive articles
Contributing to special projects such as conferences, databases, webinars and podcasts
Assisting with developing coverage outside of assigned beats
Cultivating and meeting with sources
In-region travel as necessary
Required Skills, Qualifications And Experience
At least two years’ experience covering debt markets
Private credit and/or leveraged loans reporting experience a plus
Knowledge and experience reporting on mergers and acquisitions a plus
Strong writing skills and an investigative mindset
Time management and communication skills
Networking and contact-building skills
A self-starter attitude with a cooperative approach
