How do I hire a Producer, Code Switch? Role Summary
The nation’s premier podcast on race and identity is seeking an experienced producer, writer, and storyteller. As a producer on the Code Switch team, you’ll bring ideas, interviews, books and thinkers to our podcast. You’ll head out into the field for original reporting. You’ll reel in the big interviews from the key players on the issues. You’ll shape the sound and textures of our podcast and bring your unique perspective and insights to our story meetings.
You’ll contribute on a regular basis to our weekly episodes, supporting our hosts and editors and making their work sparkle. You’ll work with other journalists, at NPR and elsewhere, to shape their reporting into long-form audio stories, and you’ll pitch – and execute – your own original ideas and projects. You’ll have the range to cover the broad landscape of race, identity and ethnicity in the U.S., but also develop areas of your own interest and expertise. You’ll work independently at times and join in our group edits and collaborations.
You’ll bring to us your passion for high-level journalism, for sound-rich stories that make for “driveway moments” and your interest and enthusiasm for telling stories that often get left out of mainstream discussions and bring those stories to new and diverse audiences.

• Engage with other members of the Code Switch team and other units with NPR
• Ensure that materials produced for NPR Ed meet NPR program standards and practices, including standards of accuracy, fairness, honesty and impartiality.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
Qualifications:
Education: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience in journalism and national affairs.
Required Skills:
• At least five years’ experience in audio journalism.
• Demonstrated experience in reporting or editing on issues related to race and identity
• Excellence in analysis and criticism.
• Demonstrated excellence in editing and writing for the Web and for radio.
• Demonstrated excellence in news judgment.
• Experience in aspects of online journalism, such as reporting, writing, Web publishing and social media.

• Ability to work collaboratively with a small but dedicated team
• Ability and willingness to work varied shifts.
• Proven ability to consistently work well with others, demonstrating at all times respect for the diverse constituencies at NPR and within the public radio system.
• Ability to relocate. In the future, NPR may choose to transfer employees to other geographic locations. Severance provisions of the AFTRA collective bargaining agreement will apply should you choose not to accept a transfer.
Preferred Skills:
• Extensive experience with recording, mixing and audio production techniques
• Experience reporting and “voicing” long-form audio stories.
All applications must include a resume and cover letter to be considered.
