The Washington Post is looking for an aggressive, perceptive and creative reporter to cover the Federal Reserve and other financial regulatory agencies, a prime beat with opportunities for newsy scoops and revelatory enterprise about the state of the financial system and its effect on real people.

Heading into the November elections, inflation is weighing on voters as the Fed mulls action on interest rates, which could trigger another economic miniboom or the next recession.

Preferred qualifications:
At least 5 years of experience covering Washington regulation of the U.S. financial system.A demonstrated ability to land consequential scoops and accountability stories.A fast metabolism and competitive drive.An abundance of ideas, energy and determination.A nimble and creative approach to prioritizing reporting targets.
