About Media Jobs in Malaysia

Malaysia's media sector encompasses television broadcasting, radio, print journalism, digital publishing, podcasting, and online media — making it one of the most diverse content employment landscapes in Southeast Asia. The sector is shaped by the coexistence of government-owned broadcasters, large private media conglomerates, and an increasingly powerful independent digital media ecosystem.

Key employers include Astro (Malaysia's largest pay-TV and media company), Media Prima (TV3, TV9, New Straits Times, Harian Metro), RTM (Radio Television Malaysia), Bernama (national news agency), Star Media Group (The Star), Sin Chew Media, and Nanyang Press. Digital-native publishers — Malaysiakini, Says.com, Vulcan Post, Free Malaysia Today — have grown substantially and now rival traditional outlets for young media talent.

The media industry in Malaysia is undergoing a structural transformation driven by falling print advertising revenue and surging digital consumption. Journalists and content creators who combine strong storytelling with SEO, video production, and data journalism skills are the most in-demand profiles. Bilingual and trilingual journalists (BM, English, Mandarin) command significant market advantages in Malaysia's multilingual media landscape.

Salary & Hiring Trends in Media

Junior journalists, reporters, and content writers earn RM 2,500 – RM 3,800/month. Senior journalists, sub-editors, and digital content managers earn RM 4,000 – RM 7,000/month. Editors-in-chief, news directors, and broadcast producers at major media houses earn RM 8,000 – RM 18,000/month.

The strongest hiring demand is in digital content production — video journalism, social media content, podcast production, and data-driven investigative reporting. Broadcast journalists at Astro and Media Prima earn above-average media salaries due to the company's scale and commercial revenue base. Freelance journalism and content creation are growing significantly, with experienced freelancers earning RM 5,000–12,000/month across multiple clients. Media professionals with Google Analytics and SEO skills command 20–30% premiums.

Top Media Roles in Malaysia

Journalist / Reporter

Researches, writes, and publishes news articles for print, digital, and broadcast outlets across Malaysia's diverse media landscape.

Content Writer / Digital Editor

Produces editorial content for digital publications — news, features, listicles, and long-form analysis optimised for online audiences.

Broadcast Journalist / News Anchor

Presents and reports news for television and radio at broadcasters including Astro, Media Prima, and RTM.

Video Producer / Director

Plans, shoots, and edits video content for broadcast, YouTube, social media, and streaming platforms.

Sub-Editor / Copy Editor

Reviews, edits, and fact-checks editorial content before publication — essential for print and high-volume digital publications.

Podcast Producer / Audio Content Creator

Plans, records, and distributes podcast series for media companies, brands, and independent publishers in Malaysia's growing audio market.

How to Land a Media Job in Malaysia

  1. 1

    Search SuperJobs using terms like "journalist", "content writer", "video producer", "editor", or "broadcast journalist" — or browse the Media industry page for all active listings.

  2. 2

    Build and link a strong portfolio: published articles, broadcast clips, YouTube channel, or a personal blog. In media hiring, your body of work matters more than your CV alone.

  3. 3

    Highlight multilingual skills prominently — BM, English, and Mandarin writing proficiency opens significantly more doors in Malaysian media than single-language candidates.

  4. 4

    Apply through SuperJobs with a tailored cover letter that demonstrates your understanding of the publication's editorial voice, audience, and recent coverage approach.

  5. 5

    Prepare to complete an editorial test as part of the hiring process — most Malaysian media employers ask candidates to write a news article or produce a short video segment under time pressure.
