Job Description

The role includes pitching, creating, and owning smart original videos, including spearheading episodic series to publish across CNBC's digital platforms, including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and LinkedIn. The producer must be a team player who is excited to collaborate with other reporters and producers on the team.

The perfect candidate is primarily a strong and thorough reporter and script writer and a talented shooter. Someone who has experience shooting sequences and scenes on the field is necessary. It’s a great plus if you’re also a creative editor. You must love analyzing numbers and data but at the same time be a relentless searcher of great characters who can best represent those datapoints and statistics. We’re seeking a passionate visual storyteller, who thrives in a fast-paced news environment. Being comfortable in front of the camera and a willingness to experiment with hosted content is a plus but not necessary.

Sound editorial judgment, writing and editing experience are paramount. Finding unique angles, sourcing and interviewing smart experts, crafting sharp scripts and editing digital videos on tight deadlines is what this job is all about. Producing stories that could be controversial or sensitive will be part of the day-to-day. The producer is expected to write articles to compliment each video.
