The posting

Inc42 Media is on the hunt for the Editor/Rewriter, who can bring value, balance, creativity and innovation to one of India’s most consistent business newsrooms.

We're looking for a seasoned storyteller with a knack for business writing, a flair for editorial leadership and a passion for the startup ecosystem as well as innovation in technology. In this role, you'll be one of the key figures in our news production process and will be looked upon for guidance and mentoring by the newsroom.

Why You Should Care

  • Impact: You won't just be filling a seat; you'll be steering the ship. Your work will directly contribute to the growth of Inc42’s readership and help shape India's #1 startup media platform.
  • Network: Our readers aren't just anyone; they're the who's who of India's startup & business ecosystem — founders, executives, operators and investors.

  • Trendspotting: Monitor feeds and identify trends to shape the day's editorial news agenda.
  • Quality Control: Edit, validate, and fact-check stories to ensure they meet our rigorous standards.
  • Team Development: Train your team to break exclusive stories, dive deep into subjects, and conduct insightful interviews.
  • Innovation: Brainstorm new story formats, series, and themes to keep our content fresh and engaging.
  • Team Well-being: Ensure roster optimisation and maintain a happy, high-performing team.

What Are We Looking For

  • Experience: 5+ years in startup/tech/business/economy reporting or editing.
  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Journalism/Mass Communication/English in Honours/Engineering or equivalent.
  • Tech Savvy: Strong interest in and understanding of technology, the startup ecosystem, and the business landscape.
  • Global Awareness: Familiar with global developments in the world of tech, digital, and startup trends.
  • Language Skills: Excellent command of English, with strong writing and editing abilities.
  • Journalistic Integrity: Strong grasp of news reporting basics and structures.
  • Market Insight: The ability to understand the tech landscape and foresee upcoming trends.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
