The Hired Guns are seeking a dynamic Market Strategist with a strong curiosity about the markets and investing to add their voice to one of the foremost sources of financial news and analysis.

The Nitty Gritty

The backstory on the organization and why they need to hire you!

A globally-recognized leader in financial news, market forecasts, and analysis is looking for a brilliant Market Strategist to use industry knowledge and Google Analytics to identify topics and trends, write articles, and record videos about indices, equities, and cryptos. In this role, you will not only exercise your editorial chops, but you’ll also be an on-air spokesperson for the company and have ample room for growth and support within a major organization. Note, this role is hybrid on-site / remote, so you’ll get all the cushy on-site perks and be able to work from home too.

Why You?

How you’ll know if you’re a fit…

Whether you’re currently an analyst or a finance reporter, you have the heart (and brain) of a trader and are obsessed with the markets and investing. You have 3+ years of experience in financial markets and / or investment analysis and a Bachelor’s-equivalent degree in Economics, Finance, or related field. If you’re currently working on—or aspiring to get — your CFA, this is a huge plus and a sign you will fit in here culturally.

You’re early in your career but eager to grow, prove your grit, and be challenged within a globally-recognized financial news company. You cut your teeth in capital markets, either in trading or research, and possess a brain for breaking news and investigative journalism. Writing 1-2 breaking news stories a day comes naturally to you, and you’re stoked about being on video and in the media 1-2 times a week. You’re a thought leader with opinions and predictions about the state of the markets and you’re unafraid to ask questions, from the mundane to the eccentric. You’re passionate about financial topics like Bitcoin and the price of gold. It’s a HUGE plus if you have a personal trading account.
