NewsNation is a national news network owned by Nexstar Media Group and dedicated to delivering fact-based, unbiased journalism for all Americans. Reaching audiences nationwide across cable, digital, and mobile platforms, NewsNation combines a national newsroom with the strength of more than 6,000 journalists in 110 local newsrooms across the country.
NewsNation is seeking an experienced Associate Director to support live and pre-recorded productions from our New York Bureau. This role is a critical member of the control room team, responsible for maintaining show timing, managing rundown elements, cueing video, and coordinating closely with Master Control to ensure smooth and accurate broadcasts.
The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced breaking news environment, communicates clearly under pressure, and works seamlessly with Directors, Producers, and technical teams to keep productions on track.
What You'll Do
  • Partner with the Director to execute live and pre-recorded broadcasts.
  • Maintain accurate show timing and track all production elements throughout the broadcast.
  • Manage video, graphics, and other production assets within newsroom and playout systems.
  • Cue and roll video elements using Bit Central and other production systems.
  • Coordinate with Master Control regarding commercial breaks, timing adjustments, and live operational changes.
  • Work closely with Producers and control room staff to ensure shows remain on schedule.
  • Support breaking news coverage by adapting quickly to evolving editorial and operational needs.
  • Collaborate with teams in New York, Chicago, and Washington, DC to support network-wide production execution.

What Success Looks Like
  • Broadcasts run smoothly and accurately, even during fast-changing news situations.
  • Timing, video playback, and rundown elements are executed with precision.
  • Communication between the control room, production teams, and Master Control is clear and effective.
  • Breaking news adjustments are handled calmly and efficiently without disrupting production.
  • Directors and Producers can rely on accurate timing and operational support throughout every show.

Qualifications
  • 2+ years of experience in a broadcast control room, production environment, or network news operation.
  • Experience timing live broadcasts and managing rundown elements.
  • Familiarity with newsroom computer systems such as iNews or ENPS.
  • Experience with automated production and video playout systems preferred.
  • Strong communication, organizational, and multitasking skills.
  • Ability to remain calm and detail-oriented in a fast-paced live production environment.
  • Availability to work a flexible schedule, including nights, weekends, holidays, and extended hours during major news events.
  • DGA membership in good standing required.

Compensation
$65.00-$75.00 per hour, commensurate with experience.
Benefits: Our comprehensive benefits package for full-time employees includes, but not limited to, medical (with multiple plan options), dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, a 401(k) with company matching contributions, Paid Parental leave, life insurance and more. Part time employees are eligible for 401(k) and any local/state leave plans. Union positions are subject to the benefits outlined in their Collective Bargaining Agreement.
