Senior Producer
A full time Senior Producer position
Fully remote: working with a USA-based team at Our Body Politic.
Salary range: $125,000 to $0 (yearly rate) - subject to experience
Our Body Politic is looking for a Senior Producer
Our Body Politic (https://ourbodypolitic.com/) is a radio show, podcast and data brand about the ways Black women and all women of color use their power for the public good. We cover politics, public health, medicine, pop culture, international relations and more. We have a vibrant roster of contributors and have featured guests including NY AG Leitia James, Sen. Tammy Duckworth, and Afghan American civil leader and novelist Nadia Hashimi.
We are looking for a Senior Producer who can helm Our Body Politic, and who has several years of producing a show. We are aiming to hire someone who produces podcasts or public radio, but will also consider TV producers who have the willingness and humility to learn radio. (It took me years to transition from tv to radio well.) The pay will be $125k plus full benefits for an FTE. We can make small carveouts for time needed for other projects... say the person is producing a radio doc incrementally. But this is meant to be an FTE or, say, 85% equivalent if desired. We are explicitly looking for a Black woman or woman of color with lived experience and news industry experience. We strongly encourage Black women or women of color with lived experience and news industry experience to apply.
We have been working remotely. For the sake of scheduling, a person in eastern or central time zones might work better than someone in Mountain or Pacific. We may also be able to provide co-working space in DC and NY.
