The Role

This is a key role at the heart of the GMB programme-making team, helping shape the stories our audience wakes up to.

As a Multi-Skilled Producer, you’ll be confident working across both newsgathering and story production, with the editorial judgement, creativity and drive to take ownership of a story from the first idea right through to transmission.

You’ll work in a fast-paced newsroom where no two days are the same, responding to breaking news as well as developing original, engaging content for the programme. While the role is primarily newsroom-based, there will also be occasional opportunities to work in the field.

This role incorporates both day and night shifts and, where required, may also step up to provide cover at Deputy Content Editor level.

• Taking ownership of programme items from initial idea through to transmission, including live guests, packages and graphics

• Video editing elements of packages, underlays, headlines and other programme content
• Commissioning graphics from designers and creating graphics using established templates
• Acting as a field producer, when required, on both planned and breaking news stories
• Making sound and informed editorial and legal judgements
• Understanding duty of care and dealing sensitively with contributors
• Demonstrating a strong understanding of social media and how it can be used to find stories, contributors and content

These are the main requirements of the role and is not an exhaustive list of duties. It is intended to reflect the nature, range, and context of the work, which will change over time.

Key Requirements

• Strong relationship-building skills, with the ability to work effectively across a busy programme-making team
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Exceptional attention to detail, even when working at pace
• Ability to prioritise, manage competing demands and deliver to tight deadlines
• Excellent journalistic judgement and a strong knowledge of news and current affairs
• Strong understanding of how to structure and produce a compelling TV news package
• Ability to edit video confidently and to a high standard
• Good understanding of television graphics, including writing effective graphics and working collaboratively with designers
• Ability to write clear, concise and accurate broadcast news copy
• Strong understanding of the GMB brand, its audience and tone of voice
• Commitment to producing news and magazine content that reflects the diversity of communities across Britain
• Good working knowledge of Ofcom regulations, the ITN Compliance Manual, relevant legal requirements, and health and safety considerations
• Flexibility to work a mixture of day and night shifts
• A full driving licence is desirable, but not essential
