</div></div></div></div><div><p>The New York Times is continuing to expand its video journalism, identifying compelling visual stories across the depth and breadth of our report. We showcase the expertise of Times journalists on-camera, share urgent news updates, produce on-the-ground reporting, pioneering Visual Investigations, and video podcasts.</p>
<p>
The Video department is looking for a Senior Producer to oversee a wide-range of stories in a variety of formats, tempos and coverage lines, including breaking news packages, reporter-on-camera segments, field shoots, and open-source investigative work. You will manage or regularly interface with a team of high-performing video journalists, editors and motion graphics animators. You will start by working on investigative, open-source stories rooted in the news. You will also have the opportunity to cover major breaking news stories both nationally and internationally.</p>
<p>
We&rsquo;re looking for a highly seasoned supervisor and news-driven storyteller with the versatility to juggle everything from a text-on-screen news piece about protests to a visual investigation about police violence.

A track record of making sound editorial decisions and working collaboratively with other desks and beat-specific reporters is essential.</p>

Should we deploy a reporter to the field? Should we put a subject-area expert on camera? Should we publish a clip first and follow with a package? This will be part of your typical repertoire.</p>
<p>
You have the leadership skills to mentor and guide the careers of team members, and also to forge productive partnerships with reporters and editors across the newsroom and in bureaus around the world.</p>

<li>Drive innovative and exclusive news video coverage in a range of visual formats.</li>
<li>Oversee and manage a team that produces originally reported visual news stories, including open-source and traditional video and field reporters, video editors, motion graphics animators and field crews.</li>
<li>Guide the team to identify the most fruitful open-source investigative targets around newsy storylines, as well as good opportunities for field deployments and reporter-on-camera videos.</li>
<li>Oversee script writing and visual approaches for effective news, field reporter-on-camera, and open-source investigative stories across a range of visual formats.</li>
<li>Provide insightful and timely feedback on script drafts, rough cuts and text stories.</li>
<li>Coordinate and collaborate with reporters and editors from around the newsroom.</li>
<li>Demonstrate support and understanding of our value of journalistic independence and a strong commitment to our mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world.</li>
<li>You will report to video leadership in New York.</li>
