About Novel

Novel produces premium original podcasts, as well as award winning content for leading broadcast networks and platforms, including the BBC, iHeartRadio, Wondery, Audible and Spotify.

Whilst investigative and narrative documentary storytelling are firmly in our DNA, Novel also develops and produces shows spanning comedy, politics, sport and scripted.

With great development and IP at the centre, our ideas are increasingly migrating to TV, Film and publishing. We are an ever expanding team of 20+ people based in London.

Overview

As Novel continues to grow a slate of longform narrative podcast series, we are offering permanent contracts for narrative documentary audio producers, ideally with a focus on longform, serialised narrative productions. This is an opportunity to do meaningful and exciting work and develop in a team environment using diverse and innovative production styles to produce award winning work.

The ideal candidate will have a great ear for audio storytelling and already have some experience as a producer. We’re keen to hear from producers from a range of backgrounds - especially longform narrative, but if you’re a producer who loves making narrative work and is now looking to transition to longform documentary / podcasts we want to hear from you, especially if your work to date shows an enthusiasm of moving towards making longer-form work. Ideally your experience will be in audio but film/TV documentary makers who are now looking to cross over into audio production are also welcome.

What is essential is a solid understanding of what makes an impactful documentary series.

A highly creative approach to audio production is also a must. Editing skills on Reaper and Descript is a significant bonus.

If you fit the bill and are interested in a permanent role in which you will be an integral part of Novel’s production team then please do get in touch. You’ll be joining a rapidly growing company packed with creative programme makers, sound designers and experienced executive producers who’ll be on hand to help you craft groundbreaking podcast series.

Key responsibilities

Additional skills and person specification

Package


It is obvious the podcast industry needs to change and become more diverse. We are therefore particularly keen to hear from applicants that are underrepresented in the industry, such as those from Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic backgrounds or those with disabilities.

Whilst we are currently home-working, we will soon be back working from a central London office. We do however have flexible working policies around time and location, in the hope of being as accommodating to individual circumstances as possible.
