Senior Distressed Reporter

9fin is the AI platform powering global debt markets — the world’s largest asset class at over $145 trillion.

Debt markets are vast, global, and mission-critical, yet still run on fragmented data, PDFs, and manual workflows. 9fin replaces this broken infrastructure with a single platform that centralises proprietary credit data, deep analysis, and high-value workflows across global markets.

Today, 9fin powers teams at 300+ blue-chip institutions worldwide, including global banks, asset managers, private equity firms, law firms, and advisors. The business is scaling at exceptional speed, with rapid expansion in the US and best-in-class retention driven by deep workflow adoption.

We’re at a defining inflection point. With proven product-market fit and strong, global market pull, 9fin is accelerating toward becoming the category-defining platform for debt markets worldwide.

9fin is looking to add to its new distressed debt team in Asia. You’ll be expected to hit the ground running, building out your own source base and delivering market-moving insight and scoops. But you’ll also be given full support and training in navigating the specialist financial landscape, developing your news-gathering, writing and interviewing skills, and understanding the markets 9fin covers.

We are hiring experienced professionals and those looking to establish themselves in the Asian distressed debt market.

This role will be a great fit if you:

• →

  Experienced — 3+ years reporting on distressed debt markets

• →

  Personable — Inquisitive and outgoing, always making new connections and sharing ideas

• →

  Organized — Able to maintain a deep network of sources, stay on top of your story pipeline and deadlines

• →

  Communicative — Clear and concise in your written and verbal language, and able to explain complex ideas in simple terms

• →

  Judicious — Committed to providing detailed and accurate information, and able to strike the right balance between urgency and perfection

• →

  Driven — Endlessly curious, self-motivated, and passionate about doing a good job
  

At 9fin we are dedicated to building and promoting a fair and inclusive workplace where everyone can reach their full potential and truly belong. We recognize that building diverse teams enables a more creative and productive environment. If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t perfectly align with the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might just be who we’re looking for — either for this role, or perhaps another.
