This job listing has expired JobJob Introduction:
BBC Studios is the main TV production arm of the BBC. It is a major supplier of high-quality content and the source of many of the BBC’s most creative and inspiring programmes.
One of our programmes, is looking for an experienced series producer with experience in overseeing the making and delivery of short-form journalistic content.
Please note: we are open to the Senior Series Producer working remotely with some travel to London or Manchester when required.
Role Responsibility:
This role oversees the delivery of short films which regularly feature as part of The One Show programme. The films are made by dedicated teams and are delivered on a regular basis. The Series Producer liaises between the production team, the studio team and the Series Editor of the One Show, overseeing the process from concept to delivery. They are responsible for a strong development pipeline, encouraging a risk-taking, innovative approach to ideas development and to deliver on the vision for the programme.
We need a strong journalist with experience of running teams and excellent communication skills to oversee and ensure delivery of these short films to The One Show. You will have a track record in topical short form, popular investigations, thoughtful features and fast turnaround reaction pieces, plus a good visual eye. This is a demanding role, supplying several finely crafted films of around five minutes duration to the studio team in London every week.
The Ideal Candidate:
The One Show is a high-profile show under close scrutiny. You will be thoroughly familiar with legal, right-to-reply and editorial policy issues and have the authority to build positive collaborative relationships with suppliers, including other Series Producers, film-makers and Executive Producers whilst talking them through often complex issues.
You will have substantial recent experience as a Series Producer and preferably a background in current affairs journalism alongside experience of making or overseeing current affairs and topical features for a popular magazine show. You will have a track record of managing a production from ideas generation through to delivery. Evidence of sound editorial judgement and the ability to lead a team and inspire creativity in others are essential, as are good writing skills, previous management experience, and demonstrable experience of organising and keeping on top of changing schedules in a fast-moving environment, with often contentious material. Experience of Live TV also preferable.
