The Wall Street Journal is seeking a seasoned journalist to cover China, the world's second-largest economy and a rising geopolitical rival to the U.S. China is in the midst of great transformation, converting decades of economic strength into geopolitical might. Beijing is increasingly willing to throw its weight around on the global stage, and has shown its ability to lead the world in artificial intelligence, electric vehicles, semiconductors and other future technologies.

At the same time, it faces internal contradictions -- an economy that has seen its growth slow to its lowest rate in years, falling profitability across its corporate landscape and a generation of young people pessimistic about their future. Meanwhile, Xi Jinping, the country’s strongest leader since the 1980s, is steadily consolidating his power. Having overseen waves of purges that have reached even his top generals, he looks set to rule indefinitely.

The Journal is looking for an experienced reporter who can capture these cross-currents and make sense of China's evolving place on the global stage. The reporter will seek to capture the dynamism but also the profound challenges that the country faces. The ideal candidate would be able to take stock of the country, its ambitions and its vulnerabilities in the economic, political and military realms as we head toward a possible fourth term of Xi’s rule.
