Content Producer

KSBY Communications seeks a Content Producer to produce on-air newscasts for KSBY-TV and create online content for KSBY.com. Our broadcast and online news products are market leaders in ratings and page views on California’s beautiful Central Coast.

We are looking for a true producer, not a show stacker; someone with the creativity and confidence to leave their fingerprints on their shows. You must be able to quickly write crisp, accurate, compelling copy as well as bumps and teases that give viewers a reason to watch. You need to be a proactive team player who coordinates with field crews and managers throughout the day to create the best possible product.

A key part of the job is writing for the Web. You must have excellent grammar, spelling and punctuation skills and a keen attention to detail. You need to know how to tailor your copy to an online audience and how to write effective headlines. Experience with social networking platforms including Facebook and Twitter is a major plus.

A college degree in journalism or a related field is required. At least two years of TV and/or online journalism experience is preferred. For consideration, e-mail a resume and cover letter to [email protected].

EOE. This position is covered by the terms of a collective bargaining agreement.
