About the role

The New York Times Cooking is seeking a video journalist to develop documentary and storytelling-focused videos for on- and off-platform audiences. You will pitch, report, and produce engaging videos centered on food and cooking, with a focus on narrative storytelling in fast-paced environments. Candidates should have hands-on digital video experience, strong production skills, and a passion for content that informs and delights.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
