Reporter jobs in Malden, MA

From Covid vaccines to obesity medications, big pharma has brought the world remarkable innovations over the past decade. But it's come at a steep cost. Drug prices are skyrocketing, adding to Americans' ever-increasing medical bills.

Bloomberg News is looking for an ambitious news breaker to cover the biggest US drug companies: Pfizer, J&J, Bristol-Myers and Merck, which are all in various stages of trying to reinvent themselves as some of their blockbuster drugs face generic competition later this decade.

WE'LL TRUST YOU TO:

• Break news that's meaningful
• Come up with ideas for stories and projects that are informative, investigative and engaging to read and watch
• Write clearly and quickly in a real-time news environment, including quarterly earnings
