Reporter - Features, Investigations & Enterprise

Kantipur Publications

Kantipur Daily and The Kathmandu Post are Nepal’s most widely read publications, together reaching policymakers, diplomats, business leaders, civil society, and Nepali readers at home and abroad. We are building a cross-publication team dedicated to the journalism that fills an existing gap in Nepal’s media landscape: features that reveal, investigations that hold power to account, and enterprise reporting that helps readers understand the forces shaping their lives.

We are looking for two driven and curious reporters to join this unit — someone who brings strong sourcing instincts, a commitment to accuracy, and the ambition to do work that lasts beyond the daily news cycle.

What You’ll Do

Report and write long-form features, investigative stories, and enterprise pieces for both Kantipur Daily and The Kathmandu Post, working across Nepali and English platforms
Develop and pitch original story ideas rooted in Nepal’s political, economic, and social realities, with an emphasis on accountability and public interest
Build and maintain a network of sources — across government, institutions, civil society, and communities — that generates story leads unavailable to reporters relying on press releases and official channels
Work closely with the Managing Editor and section editors to develop stories beyond the daily news cycle, from early-stage idea through reporting, drafting, and revision
Conduct document-based and data-driven reporting, use RTI filings, public records, and financial disclosures as core reporting tools
Coordinate with photographers, videographers, and data journalists to develop multimedia-ready stories suited to digital and print platforms
Fact-check your own work rigorously and participate in the team’s editorial review process
Contribute to simultaneous Nepali and English publication of major investigations when relevant

Who You Are

A journalist with at least 5-7 years of reporting experience, including work on investigative stories
Someone with a demonstrated ability to develop original stories – not just respond to news – and to see them through from idea to publication
Deeply familiar with Nepal’s political, institutional, and social landscape; well-sourced in at least one major beat (politics, economy, governance, environment and climate, social affairs, or others)
Able to work in Nepali and English, and skilled in writing clean copy in one of the two languages
Comfortable working on long-horizon projects alongside daily deadlines, and disciplined about managing your own time across multiple stories in varying stages
Grounded in journalistic ethics: accuracy, fairness, source protection
Genuinely motivated by journalism that matters to people’s lives, to democratic accountability, to the public record
