Nexstar Media Group is seeking a creative journalist to lead the development of innovative sports content across its local station group. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of sports content at one of the largest media groups in the U.S. You’ll be part of a forward-thinking corporate team, creating content that reaches audiences across the group and drives engagement on all platforms. This is not a traditional sports reporting or producing role – if your focus is reading highlights and covering games, this position is not for you. We’re looking for a self-starting content creator who can produce compelling video segments for all platforms including broadcast specials, connected TV (CTV) and digital platforms, with a focus on original, news-generating sports content. Key Responsibilities: + Contribute to major company initiatives including the Super Bowl, Olympics, College Football and Basketball, NASCAR, PGA Golf, and other marquee events. + Produce broadcast special programs on athletes, teams, and major events. + Build and maintain positive relationships with stakeholders within Nexstar’s local sports teams to scale coverage opportunities. + Coordinate with local stations to leverage resources and talent for content creation. + Pitch and produce sales-integrated programming to support local market revenue goals. + Plan and execute daily live video programming, including coverage of breaking sports news. + Independently host, switch, edit, and upload daily and special project video content using OBS. + Set up interviews, gather b-roll and visual elements, and prepare rundowns or scripts as needed. Skill/Experience Requirements: + 5–7 years of experience in video production, including extensive on-camera work and technical problem-solving. + Experience using OBS or similar streaming software is a plus. + Strong understanding of current sports newsmakers and issues. + Solid foundation in journalism ethics, including copyright and attribution. + Demonstrated ability to identify and capture audience opportunities in sports content development (non-highlights) and streaming format. + Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively. + Experience working cross-functionally and influencing across diverse teams and markets. + Must be located in or willing to relocate to a Nexstar market with a local newsroom that supports all dayparts. + Physical presence in a Nexstar facility is required to perform this role.
