On‑site / Hybrid (Vashi, Navi Mumbai)

About Swarna Bharat TV :

Swarna Bharat TV is a mission-led creative platform telling precise, high-quality stories on Bharat's history, culture, spirituality, and knowledge systems. Our YouTube channel is live with RashtraGaatha, and we're rolling out additional twelve original shows—animated series, on-field documentaries, studio formats, and feature specials. We pair research-first writing with cinematic craft, and we're preparing our originals for wider distribution, including OTT.

The Role :

We're hiring a Senior Script Writer to lead weekly originals across our slate. You'll develop platform-ready scripts that work for digital and long-form cuts—clear hooks, clean structure, rigorous sourcing, and editor-friendly visual beats. You'll collaborate closely with researchers, editors, and designers to translate ideas into compelling, publishable episodes.

What you'll do :

1) Script & Structure

Deliver polished scripts on a weekly cadence; write in a clear, modern voice (Roman Hindi or English as required by the show).

Craft strong openings, act-based flow, and crisp endings; keep paragraphs modular for edit flexibility.

2) Research & Verification

Build source decks per episode : books, archives, credible journalism, papers, govt records.

Cross-check timelines, names, claims; maintain citations / footnotes and a transparent sources log.

Flag legal / ethical risks (defamation, living persons, sensitive claims) and propose safe phrasings.

3) Packaging Support

Provide visual beats for editors (shot ideas, archival cues, on-screen text) and contribute title options & thumbnail micro-copy per episode.

4) Collaboration & Iteration

Work with the team to incorporate data / feedback and improve retention, clarity, and pacing week over week.

Must-haves :

4–8 years of non-fiction / script writing for digital / documentary content.

Proven research discipline and citation hygiene.

Platform sense : attention-driving openings, tight structure, and audience-friendly language.

On-site availability in Vashi; dependable weekly delivery.

Nice-to-haves :

Experience writing for anchors / VO; familiarity with archives and rights.

Comfort shaping scripts for both short (8–10 min) and longer (20–30 min) cuts.

Basic sheet hygiene (sources log, outline → draft → revision tracking).

Why join us :

Lead writing on originals with national resonance.

Mission-led team, fast decisions, visible on-screen / description credits.

Multi-platform exposure : digital now, repackaging for wider distribution.

How to apply :
