About the role

New York Public Radio's WNYC is seeking a Supervising Senior Producer for Weekend Edition and Weekend All Things Considered to oversee editorial direction, sound design, and coordination with hosts and engineers. The role requires 5+ years of experience producing audio news and proven leadership, with a focus on audience-first journalism. It combines newsroom leadership with a hybrid schedule (two days in-office) and flexibility to cover developing stories and special projects.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
