Please note that this is a replacement for maternity leave. This is a fixed-term contract for one year.
This role will support the Broadcast Graphics requirements for the Nordic channels that playout from the London Technology Hub in Chiswick, London.
These graphics air from multiple platforms including Pixel Power, Vertigo and Miranda and the channels include:
- WBD Northern Europe - one of the largest TV groups in the Nordic region; we support 15 channels featuring locally produced entertainment programmes and sports as well as the best series and movies from around the world.

The purpose of this role is to ensure that both scheduled and Live broadcast graphics material required for all channels originating from WBD is technically supported, meets reliability targets, meets the channel’s objectives for effective brand care and supports the overall network strategy.
