Job description

Mothership is Singapore’s leading youth-focused digital news platform — and a trusted voice with over 10 years of media presence in Singapore.

As we venture deeper into an era of digital-first journalism, we’re looking for passionate and driven individuals to join us on our next phase of growth. This is a chance to be part of a team that shapes conversations, breaks new ground, and creates stories that matter to Singaporeans.

You will learn from and collaborate with experienced leaders and industry experts, gaining exposure to work that reaches audiences in Singapore and around the world. You’ll see the direct impact of your ideas, creativity, and craft every single day.

At Mothership, people are at the heart of everything we do — our colleagues, our community, and our audience. We’re committed not only to delivering high-quality content, but also to helping you grow personally and professionally. You’ll be supported, challenged, and empowered to build the career you envision.

WHAT is this role about?

As a Podcast Producer, you will work as part of Mothership’s Audio Projects team to develop a new narrative-driven podcast series.

You will work alongside teammates who are passionate about creating engaging content using audio formats.

A snippet of what you can expect to be doing on a day-to-day basis:

• Putting together fun and insightful episodes for our podcast
• Conducting research into a variety of topics relevant and interesting to our audiences
• Identifying and building relationships with guests and newsmakers
• Writing scripts and pitching stories
• Developing and executing marketing strategies for the podcast

WHO should consider?

We are looking for someone with prior writing, journalism, podcast, and/or show hosting experience. A plus if you are familiar with audio production and editing software and have an understanding of the narrative or story-driven audio content landscape.

If you are someone who:

• Is curious about socio-cultural phenomena, and has a nose for a good story
• Has good knowledge of our political scene in Singapore
• Possesses the drive to pursue story leads and opportunities, and can work independently
• Listens to a wide range of podcasts and audio content
• Is fluent in written and spoken English

... we’d love for you to be part of our team!

Crucially, you must possess the mental stamina, tenacity, and agility to work in an intensely dynamic, fast-paced, and competitive media environment.
