About the role

KMBC-TV in Kansas City seeks a Local News Producer with creative vision to craft memorable newscasts. You will decide on the plan, own breaking news, and coordinate weather presentation while working with anchors, reporters, and editors. In-person attendance is required and flexibility for holidays and overnight shifts is essential. Ideal candidates have newsroom producing experience, strong writing and copy-editing skills, and the ability to manage multiple crews.

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.
