The Executive Producer will lead creative development and serve as the managing editor, working closely with Mishal Husain and the Weekend Edition team and providing hands-on day-to-day editorial and production guidance and direction. The successful candidate will have an entrepreneurial and collaborative spirit; a keen eye for intriguing and consequential stories and people; and the vision, flexibility and determination required to invent and build a groundbreaking new franchise.
We'll trust you to:
Lead creative development and ongoing production for a new flagship show (or slate of shows) for Bloomberg’s Weekend Edition, hosted by Mishal Husain. Help bring in high-profile, globally relevant and fascinating interview guests for wide-ranging and surprising conversations, working alongside the host and our central booking team. Direct a production team working on episodes day-to-day: provide notes and direction on everything from guest and show ideas to fact checking, episode assembly and sound design. Ensure that the show is truly global in perspective and editorially and strategically aligned with Bloomberg’s Weekend Edition, liaising with editors on print/digital elements such as edited Q and As and essays. Work with audio, video and text components, collaborating with diverse teams within Bloomberg, including events, and ensuring social media presence. Advise on studio and production best practices and workflows. Communicate on upcoming programming across the newsroom and work closely on distribution plans across all media platforms.
You'll need to have:
Extensive experience working in a newsroom environment on projects with rigorous journalistic ethics. Excellent business, political and cultural news judgement and a sharp editorial ear. Experience with field, remote and in-studio production. Experience working and collaborating across media platforms (some combination of podcast, video, broadcast, print/digital). Experience working internationally — and producing for a global audience — is preferred. Experience launching a new series successfully in a crowded media landscape would be ideal.
