The Barbara and Dick Couch Fellowship for Innovation is a fellowship for early‑career journalists who aspire to a career in public media and podcasting. The fellow will gain hands‑on experience in all aspects of news reporting and audio production, with a unique split between our news and podcasting departments.
The fellow will spend half of their time in NHPR's News department working alongside other members of the News team, honing reporting skills, developing a beat, producing daily stories as well as longer features, and engaging with our audience through social media and other techniques. NHPR's newsroom promotes an ambitious and versatile culture, with an equal focus on audio and digital storytelling.
In addition to six months of reporting, the fellow will spend the six months with the Creative Production Unit, which produces the NHPR podcasts Outside/In and Civics 101. There, the fellow will work with other team members to generate show ideas and report, write, and edit audio stories for one or both of the podcasts. The fellow will also produce digital stories and engage audiences through social media and newsletters.
The fellowship is a full‑time, year‑long position. Fellows receive a stipend of $44,000 plus benefits, including company‑paid individual health, dental and vision insurance and paid vacation, sick time, and holidays.
Who Should Apply Ideal candidates are inspired by innovative storytelling and/or journalism through on‑air and online media and aspire to a career in public media. Previous public media experience is not required. The fellowship is open to applicants who completed their undergraduate or graduate degrees within the past three years. A valid driver’s license and satisfactory driving record are required. NHPR encourages candidates from groups historically underrepresented in our industry to apply.
Compensation & Benefits This is a full‑time position and the stipend for this role is $44,000 annually. NHPR offers a comprehensive and generous benefits package, which includes company‑paid individual health and dental insurance, paid vacation, sick time, organizational holidays, AD&D, STD/LTD, FSA, and 403(b).
Things To Know About Us NHPR is the state’s foremost news organization, focused on producing accountability journalism and engaging deeply with the diverse communities and people of the Granite State.
