About the role

GBH, based in Boston, seeks a versatile Executive Producer to oversee the Documentary Unit, including FRONTLINE, NOVA, and American Experience. You will coordinate with senior leadership, prepare briefing materials, and drive priorities across a fast-moving portfolio. The role requires exceptional writing and communication, strategic thinking, and the ability to align organizational goals with fundraising efforts. Hybrid work includes onsite collaboration and leadership engagements.

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.
