This is an opportunity to work with a national title undergoing a significant growth and transformation. With a new Editorial Director, television arm and radio arm, the organisation is now looking to appoint a video journalist to contribute toward their evening news coverage. This is a newsroom that values on the ground reporting, values editorial craft, and people who can take a pitch to package with real ownership.
We’re looking for an experienced Video Journalist to join the Evening News team as a senior member of a growing unit. You’ll work alongside three developing journalists and work with the editor to develop standards, add structure, and set the pace on a small island with big stories.
This is a role for someone who wants to lead by example, broaden their skillset, and carve out opportunities in a newsroom backed by long-term investment, expanding output, and rare stability in an industry that often lacks it.
Why Cayman?
Beyond the tax neutrality and world-class sunsets, the Cayman Islands offer a high standard of living, outstanding healthcare and schooling, a safe and family-friendly environment, and a professional opportunity to shape discourse in a key offshore financial centre.
The move is supported by full relocation assistance, and you’ll be joining a newsroom in real transformation, with significant investment behind it and a clear editorial vision ahead.
Key responsibilities include
1. Pitch original story ideas and develop contracts across business and politics across the island.
2. Shoot, write, and edit packages in time for the evening news programme.
3. Respond to breaking news and work collaboratively with a team of journalists to fill the rundown.
Key requirements include
4. Proven experience as a video journalist
5. Confident in shooting, scripting, and editing your own stories
6. Fluency in business and politics, with the ability to cover stories across financial services, regulation, education, tourism, and infrastructure
