We make some of the most popular podcasts in the world. You might have heard of our 'The Rest Is...' series, covering History, Politics, Football, Money, and Entertainment.


Our hosts are some of the biggest names in UK media: Gary Lineker, Rory Stewart, Katty Kay, Richard Osman and Steph McGovern to name just a few.


Our passion is intelligent and entertaining conversations, which create a meaningful relationship between the presenters and the listener.


Our shows are evolving from being audio products to all-round media brands, available across platforms and in whatever format our audience prefers.


Our ambition is to become the leading provider of thoughtful, long-form content in English-speaking markets.

What we're looking for
We're looking for the most ambitious and talented aspiring producers who want to build a career in podcasting and digital media.


You'll be joining the team responsible for producing dozens of hours of high-quality content every week, across audio, video and social platforms.


Most of the technical skills you need for the job we can teach, although proficiency in audio or video editing would be useful. We can't teach passion for the medium - it's a must-have before you walk through the door.


The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment and has the adaptability and desire to throw themselves into an intense schedule of always-on content.


On any given week you might be:

Researching topics for discussion on a show

Running a live Youtube stream reacting to a major news event

Facilitating a recording on the other side of the country

Managing correspondence with the audience

Editing an episode or cutdowns for social media

Writing episode titles and descriptions

Uploading content to multiple channels and ensuring correct delivery


You'll be learning on the job in one of the most exciting companies in British media right now. For those willing to put the work in, the opportunities for progression will come quickly!

Requirements
A passion for thoughtful, longform conversational content

A demonstrable interest in content production

Great written and spoken communicator

Ability to adapt quickly to whatever is thrown at you

Positive attitude

Willing to put the work in and learn an industry from the bottom up

Able to work full-time in the office in Kennington, London



Salary

£28,000 p.a.

The traineeship lasts for six months, at which point you'll be considered for a full-time assistant producer position.


The application deadline is 11pm on Sunday 20th July.
