We will be reviewing applications on a rolling basis. Please apply as early as possible to improve your chances of being considered for the position. The last day for submitting your application is February 24, 2026.

Scroll is hiring. We’re looking for a well-informed and talented video journalist with at least five years of experience to join our news team as a reporter and lead producer, and help expand the reach of our award-winning journalism in newer formats.

The candidate will be expected to bring journalistic rigour, creativity, and sharp technical skills to a range of video productions in both short and long formats.

  1. Report on video stories independently, as well as alongside reporters.

  2. Produce interviews, explainers and podcasts, in coordination with editors and hosts.

  3. Write and edit scripts for Scroll’s video documentaries and feature reports.

  4. Oversee the functioning of the video team, comprising producers and editors.

Scroll is a small newsroom that punches above its weight. We work with limited resources to produce ambitious, award-winning journalism that informs and inspires. If you believe you can produce technically sound video work that reflects these values, please send your resume and five work samples with a short cover letter explaining why you think you are a good fit for this role to jobs@scroll.in, with “Senior Video Journalist” in the subject line. While sending in your work, please mention your role in each project.

This is not a remote position. The candidate will be required to work full-time at our Delhi office.
