PRODUCERS - HELP US CREATE THE NEXT BIG THING IN MORNING NEWS! (Multiple Openings)
ABOUT THE SHOW:
WNYC and PRI, in collaboration with the BBC, The New York Times and WGBH Boston television and radio, are reinvigorating morning drive-time with a new national news program. The new show will air on public radio stations nationwide starting early 2008. Expect a new sound in public radio and online: a program that is live, dynamic and conversational with fleet-footed presentation that is engaging, interactive and independent.

ABOUT THE POSITION:
Ambitious new morning radio program seeks engaging, intellectually curious self-starters with strong communication skills and high energy to help us make a dynamic radio and online experience for news consumers nationwide. Must be open to creative thinking, team effort, and making something new every day. Previous compelling life experience required.
We’re building a team of engaging people with a variety of experiences, backgrounds and interests. If you bring a unique perspective to the table, and think making a lively radio and online program sounds exciting, please apply. Previous experience in radio, daily journalism or online interactive experience is not required for all positions — though we certainly want some people on the team with those backgrounds. We require strong writing skills, fearlessness in pursuit of information, an inquisitive and active mind, and an ability to work in tightly-knit teams.
All positions are based in New York City, and start in early November. Successful candidates will be employees of WNYC. Once the show begins daily production, some members of the team will start their day in the wee hours of the morning.
