Podcast Virtual Assistant Jobs in Florida (NOW HIRING)

The Live Podcast Operations Producer is responsible for the technical and operational execution of the PBD Podcast and other Valuetainment live productions. This role will operate the live production laptop, oversee the stream, organize and execute digital assets, assist with guest-booking logistics, and coordinate closely with the show's producers, control room, guests, and on-air talent to ensure each broadcast runs smoothly.
The position is initially focused on technical execution, live-show operations, and guest coordination rather than research and editorial preparation. As the Live Podcast Operations Producer builds familiarity with the show, talent, production systems, and editorial standards, there may be an opportunity to take on supplementary producing responsibilities.

• Oversee and monitor the live stream across YouTube and other applicable distribution platforms.
• Prepare, organize, test, and execute videos, graphics, articles, websites, images, and other digital assets used during the show.

• Coordinate with producers, directors, control-room staff, guests, and talent throughout each production.
• Monitor stream health, playback, audio and video synchronization, and other technical elements.
• Identify and troubleshoot technical issues quickly without disrupting the live broadcast.
• Participate in pre-show meetings, technical checks, rehearsals, and production preparation.
• Confirm that all show assets are properly labeled, organized, loaded, and tested before going live.
• Maintain organized digital folders, playback systems, templates, and show-related technical resources.
• Document technical issues and recommend improvements to live-production workflows.
• Assist with post-show file organization, production notes, and operational recaps.
• Support additional Valuetainment podcasts, interviews, live events, and studio productions as needed.
• Work with the Director of Studio Operations to develop repeatable systems that improve reliability, efficiency, and accountability.
• Gradually provide supplementary producing support after demonstrating strong editorial judgment and command of the show.

Guest-Booking and Coordination Responsibilities

• Support the scheduling and logistical coordination of podcast guests in partnership with the show's producers and booking team.
• Communicate with guests, agents, publicists, and representatives regarding availability, scheduling, arrival instructions, and production requirements.
• Coordinate guest travel, transportation, hotel accommodations, itineraries, and onsite arrival details when applicable.
• Maintain accurate guest calendars, contact information, booking statuses, and production notes.
• Confirm interview dates, arrival times, topics, biographies, headshots, promotional assets, and technical requirements.
• Coordinate remote-interview links, technical tests, and connection checks for virtual guests.
• Ensure guests receive parking information, studio access instructions, release forms, and other necessary documentation.
• Coordinate with reception, security, green-room staff, producers, and talent teams to ensure a professional guest experience.
• Monitor last-minute schedule changes and communicate updates promptly to all relevant departments.
• Assist with guest hospitality, green-room readiness, and movement through the studio on production days.
• Maintain discretion when handling confidential guest information, schedules, and communications.
