Join The Information as Our Amazon Reporter!

The evolution of Amazon into a conglomerate whose tentacles stretch into every corner of the global economy is one of the most important business stories of the current era. How the company fares in the next few years, through the pandemic and beyond, will be fascinating to chronicle. Not only will Amazon have to grapple with antitrust pressures and labor issues, but the challenges that come with managing a company of such size and complexity are sure to multiply. The Information is looking for a reporter to cover this compelling story. 

We need someone with the drive, imagination and skills to get inside Amazon. The ideal candidate will already have experience covering the company, including an existing group of sources or a track record of original reporting on other parts of tech or business. Curiosity, creativity and perseverance are an essential part of the job.   

Reporting at The Information isn’t like working for other publications. We don’t rewrite press releases. We only write stories with exclusive information. That liberates reporters from the need to sit in the office, churning out commodity news. It means reporters can pursue what they think is important. The aim is to tell the real story of what’s going on at companies, rather than the superficial story that dominates much of the media. Our reporters regularly break news and write in-depth features that get behind the personnel dynamics as well as the business developments inside the company. 

Compensation is competitive and includes aggressive bonuses. We offer a range of benefits, including health insurance, three weeks paid vacation (starting), generous family leave, a 401(k), a technology budget and a gym stipend.
