We are looking for a full-time, research-led scriptwriter who can craft deep, compelling</div><div>
long-form video scripts grounded in facts and elevated by powerful storytelling.</div><div>
This role is not about quick listicles or surface-level explainers. You will work on stories that</div><div>
require original research, synthesis of complex ideas, field-level understanding, and</div><div>
cinematic narrative arcs.</div><div><br>
If you enjoy going down rabbit holes, connecting dots others miss, and writing scripts that move</div><div>

emotional depth</div><ul><li>Translate dense research into accessible, engaging, human-centered storytelling</li><li>Work closely with editors, producers, and visual teams to ensure scripts are visual-first</li></ul><div>
and platform-native</div><ul><li>Fact-check rigorously and maintain high editorial standards and credibility</li><li>Continuously refine scripts based on feedback while protecting the core narrative vision</li><li>Stay updated on global and Indian developments related to sustainability, social</li></ul><div>
innovation, policy, and culture</div><div><b><br>

Must-Have</b></div><ul><li>2+ years of proven experience writing long-form scripts, documentaries, or</li></ul><div>
investigative/explainer content</div><ul><li>Demonstrable experience in deep research and synthesis (journalism, documentary,</li></ul><div>
policy research, or equivalent)</div><ul><li>Ability to write structured, engaging scripts that hold attention for 15&ndash;25 minutes</li><li>Strong command over English with a clear, confident narrative voice</li><li>Evidence of work that balances facts + storytelling (links required)</li></ul><div><b><br>
Good to Have</b></div><ul><li>Background in journalism, documentary filmmaking, public policy, sustainability, or social</li></ul><div>
impact storytelling</div><ul><li>Experience writing for YouTube or digital video platforms</li><li>Familiarity with Indian socio-economic, environmental, or cultural contexts</li><li>Ability to think visually while writing</li></ul><div><b><br>
What Will Make You Stand Out</b></div><ul><li>You&rsquo;ve written scripts people still remember</li><li>You can turn a complex system into a story without dumbing it down</li><li>Your research notes are as strong as your final scripts</li><li>You are opinionated, curious, and allergic to shallow narratives</li></ul></div>
