Harrison Scott Publications offers you a rare opportunity
to enter a long-term relationship with a stable organization committed to top-flight news
reporting.
HSP is an independent news organization owned
and managed by journalists. There are no "empty suits" to disrupt the newsroom
with surprise reorganizations or long-winded internal memos. No rigid corporate policies.
No office politics.
Instead, we maintain an informal, yet
hard-driving environment where editors and reporters are free to immerse themselves in
their beats and stay in constant contact with sources in the financial and real estate
markets we cover.
We publish four highly regarded weekly
newsletters -- Real Estate Alert, Hedge Fund Alert,
Commercial Mortgage Alert, Asset-Backed Alert, and
Private Equity Insider -- with others on
the drawing board. Our subscribers are well educated, fiercely competitive and handsomely
paid dealmakers with an insatiable appetite for fresh business leads. For that reason, we
place a high value on reporters who regularly break big news stories. To attract strong
journalists and other high-caliber staffers, HSP offers generous pay – plus an
impressive benefits package.
And you’ll like where we’re
located. Our offices are close to the train station in trendy Hoboken, N.J. -- just
minutes from Manhattan by PATH train. Click here for
