WBRC 6 News is expanding its live streaming strategy — and we’re looking for a creative, driven Streaming Producer and Host to help build the future of how our audience consumes local news.
This is not a traditional line-producer role. This position is focused on developing compelling, live-streaming content that extends our broadcast brand and creates meaningful, must-watch digital programming. This role also includes hosting and co-hosting streaming shows as needed — blending strong editorial judgment with confident on-camera presence.
Duties/Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
What You’ll Do:
– Produce live daily streaming shows, including afternoon and evening blocks
– Host or co-host streaming programs as needed
– Develop streaming-first rundowns designed specifically for digital audiences
– Write conversational, viewer-focused scripts
– Lead live interviews and breaking news coverage
– Work closely with anchors to shape tone, pacing, and digital storytelling
– Integrate breaking news, investigative reporting, weather, and community segments
– Monitor real-time analytics and adjust content strategy accordingly
– Collaborate with digital and broadcast teams to maximize reach
What Makes This Role Different:
– You’ll help shape the show’s identity — not just fill time
– You’ll experiment with format, pacing, and audience interaction
– You’ll help build appointment viewing in a growing streaming environment
– You’ll have leadership support to innovate
– This is a chance to build something meaningful in a newsroom that takes streaming seriously.
Qualifications/Requirements:
– Strong news judgment and understanding of daily news flow
– Producing experience (TV, digital, streaming, or hybrid)
– Excellent writing skills with a conversational tone
– Comfortable, credible on-camera presence
– Ability to thrive under deadline pressure
– Collaborative, solution-oriented mindset
– Familiarity with newsroom systems (ENPS preferred)
– Bachelor’s degree in journalism or related field preferred
