Job description

Ozarks First in Springfield, Missouri, is seeking a highly organized and collaborative Special Projects Producer. This is a role for a visionary producer ready to lead high-profile storytelling in the Ozarks. This role drives the production of high-impact enterprise content, long-form broadcast specials, and premium streaming programming.

As the Special Projects Producer, you will serve as the central creative hub of our newsroom. You will lead station-wide initiatives, coordinate major broadcast and Connected TV (CTV) specials, and guide multidisciplinary teams to deliver compelling, high-quality storytelling across all linear, digital, and streaming platforms.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Special Event Production: Produce and coordinate major broadcast specials, live events, and community-focused franchise programming (e.g., Heritage Month specials).
  • Cross-Team Collaboration: Act as the primary coordinator between anchors, reporters, photographers, news managers, operations, and production teams to execute premium special reports.
  • Production Management: Oversee the shooting and editing calendars for all special projects to maximize newsroom resources and meet strict deadlines.
  • Multi-Platform Execution: Tailor long-form content and enterprise projects for traditional television, OzarksFirst.com, and our dedicated CTV streaming applications.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Broadcast Journalism, Broadcast News, or a related field.
  • Experience: Proven track record producing newscasts, long-form special projects, or premium multi-platform content.
  • Leadership & Influence: Demonstrated ability to manage complex projects and guide cross-functional teams without direct supervisory authority.
  • Project Management: Exceptional organizational skills with a proven ability to manage multiple high-priority timelines simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
  • Editorial Excellence: Strong editorial judgment under tight deadlines, paired with flawless writing, spelling, grammar, and copy-editing skills.
  • Technical Familiarity: Deep understanding of digital and streaming content workflows is highly preferred.
  • Flexibility: Ability to adapt to shifting newsroom priorities and flex your schedule as demanding project timelines require.
