The Wall Street Journal needs an enterprising reporter to tell their stories as the industry undergoes its biggest transformation in decades. Chinese companies are paying record prices for trophy properties like the Waldorf-Astoria. Airbnb is posing an Uber-style challenge to hoteliers across the board. Sleek new boutique hotels are scoring with high-end customers. And giant companies like Marriott and Starwood are merging like it’s 1999. We are looking for a scoops machine who knows how to to cultivate sources and can show readers how these larger-than-life businessmen are forging new paths.
The hotels reporter will be part of the property group’s commercial real estate coverage, breaking news of the billion-dollar deals that are reshaping the industry and analyzing a market where prices are soaring to record levels as well as telling stories about smaller proprietors facing the everyday frustrations of property ownership. The candidate must possess a track record of excellence in corporate coverage along with excellent storytelling skills.
This is an opportunity to write for all sections of the Journal. There also will be ample opportunities to work on broad pieces with fellow reporters from bureaus in the U.S. and around the world.
