Assistant Producer

About the Role

Warner Bros. Discovery is looking for an Assistant Producer to join its Sports Europe team in London. In this role, you will support the Producer across every phase of programme and series creation, with a particular focus on premium sports content for the UK market. You will help shape ideas for content that airs across WBD Sports channels and platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Help develop programme concepts and content that can be used across WBD Sports channels and digital platforms.
• Write, edit, and shape scripts, teases, features, and other elements for live and recorded productions.
• Lead off-site multi-camera shoots, including productions involving high-profile contributors.
• Contribute story ideas that can be turned into programme segments, from early concept through to delivery.
• Oversee edit sessions and audio recording sessions.
• Work closely with production team members to make sure content is delivered on time.
• Coordinate with suppliers and third parties to ensure assigned tasks and project deliverables are completed.
• Take part in discussions about new ideas, improvements, and workflow changes that can improve efficiency.

Experience and Skills Required

The ideal candidate should have a strong understanding of broadcast operations and live production methods, including studio shows, remote productions, and outside broadcasts. You should be capable of producing and directing ENG camera shoots and understand non-linear editing well enough to create fast-turnaround edits for assigned programmes. The role also calls for someone who can contribute creative ideas, works in an organised and detail-focused way, and manages time effectively to meet deadlines. Being able to self-shoot is an advantage, though it is not essential.

Working Arrangement

This position follows a hybrid model, combining remote and on-site work in line with company policy and as agreed with your line manager. WBD also notes that, where required for business needs and with reasonable notice, the working arrangement may be changed subject to applicable laws.

Culture and Values

The company emphasises its guiding principles as the foundation of how it works, and these values are considered an important part of the interview process.
