Equity Analyst & Reporter, CNBC
About The Position
CNBC is looking for a sharp, insightful stock picker who can uncover compelling investment ideas and write or explain them on air with clarity and authority. This person will identify opportunities through deep research, rigorous analysis of company financials and market trends, and conversations with leading analysts, investors and industry leaders. They should have no qualms about reaching out to C-suite executives or reporting on the ground to gather insights firsthand. The ideal candidate is fluent in balance sheets, income statements, and valuation metrics, and can recognize when changes in these figures may signal a shift in a company’s prospects. They will be well-sourced among Wall Street professionals and skilled at turning those relationships into actionable insights and fresh perspectives. They will work closely with our team of analysts to coordinate and collaborate on research and analysis. Their research should consider the impact of outside forces such as technological changes, regulation and the economy. Their writing and on-air analysis should combine the depth of a Wall Street analyst with the accessibility of a skilled communicator, helping CNBC’s audience understand not just what to buy or sell, but the thinking behind each idea.
