No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

The Role
ITN’s fledgling Digital division is seeking an experienced development producer with a strong background in production and development.
We want someone bursting with ideas, good relationships across podcast and video, and a hunger to see productions through end to end. Within a team, the role will originate new ideas, win business, and then go on to ensure productions are delivered to budget.
As well as winning new business, we’ll expect the person to have a strong understanding of digital-first content, how the backend of YouTube and other platforms function, and be willing to learn how to engage viewers on these platforms in a data-led team.
Key Responsibilities
- Work with the Head of Content to originate, develop, and deliver pitch-ready ideas for a range of platforms across podcast and video
- Develop ideas for our internal distribution platforms on YouTube, Facebook, and Spotify and grow audiences across our brands
- Work closely with senior editorial stakeholders to develop projects with the Director of Digital’s editorial priorities and audience strategy
- Develop ideas with strong digital and multiplatform potential, optimising reach and impact across online platforms
- Provide editorial guidance, feedback, and leadership throughout development, from early concept through to greenlight-ready pitches
- Ensure all development work meets ITN Productions’ high standards of accuracy, due impartiality, compliance, and duty of care
