What should The New York Times sound like when marketing itself? We’re hiring a Marketing Audio Producer to help us find out. The Producer will work with the Brand Marketing team to define our audio identity by concepting and producing prototypes that result in 1-2 finished ads.
Brand Marketing seeks to tell the story of The Times’ quality, independent original journalism — that is, news worth paying for — with the same quality and ambition of our newsroom. (E.g. See the recent Truth and The Daily campaigns.) We’re looking for someone with a proven ability to create a compelling audio narrative, who has experience reporting, interviewing and editing and a deep understanding of audio advertising across podcasts, digital and terrestrial radio. She or he should be NY-based and able to work out of our offices and in-house studio in Midtown. While this is a defined project, we expect to continue building our audio advertising capabilities so this could become a regular gig.
Interested candidates should send a resume and examples of your best work by October 8 to brandmarketingjobs@nytimes.com with “NYT Marketing Audio Producer” in the subject line.
