Producer - Live studio programming
Uxbridge
Premier League Productions is looking for an experienced Producer for its new-look Premier League Today programmes. These are 26-minute live studio news magazine shows - and the successful candidate will be responsible for programme-editing one a day (Monday-Friday), as well as assisting the other producers with their programmes. We have re-branded and re-styled our news output for this season. The successful candidate will help refine that style as well as the editorial content of the programmes.
The role requires management of a number of reporters around the country and an in-house team of broadcast journalists and presenters. Responsibilities include preparing running orders, briefing the editorial team, liaising with talent and delivering live studio programmes on time and to budget.
The successful candidate will be expected to help with forward planning and will prove his or her ability to generate ideas and think creatively. He or she will also have previous experience as a live 'gallery' producer with the ability to oversee a production team to ensure the successful delivery of programmes.
Developing junior members of the team is a key part of the role. Knowledge of compliance guidelines for broadcasting is essential.
Another requirement is experience of working with and managing on-screen talent, ensuring that they are fully prepped for each programme. A passion and love for football is a must, with a strong knowledge of the Premier League.
PLEASE NOTE: The successful candidate could be required to work on occasional weekends.
